I looking at running a small trap line for bobcats and coins this winter and I'm wondering what brand of cage trap I should be looking at?
-
I really like cam trip traps for bobcats...humptulips on here makes some really nice traps too that are collapsible. Bearpaw traps are great too...
-
Camtrips are nice !! But I prefer traps with conibear triggers trimmed up high so I catch cats and not skunks
My :twocents:

Dont forget Bear Hunter's indestructible grizzly proof traps

What do you got against skunks? Haha
-
camtrip cages work great. Also, comstock custom cages beaver trap set on its side with only one door open works great.
-
I'm prejudiced but I like the ones I make. Collapsible so they carry and transport easy. Versatile, they can catch beaver and otter also. Coni trigger so less apt to freeze up. 11x17x40, $200 and $20 for shipping.

I’ve got some of Bruce’s traps and they are universal and work well. I also have some camtrips that are pretty slick and nestle together to save space, the trip pan can be problematic in freezing/snowy conditions but there is a few tricks to help with that.
-
make them, lot cheaper than the tomahawks. :chuckle:
buy them if you want to spen $150+ :bash: :bdid: :mgun2:
-
Make em. With a litle innovation and time with beta testing you can make about anything you want. Welder and setup for $200 and you're off an running.
I'm making another line's worth of cage traps this summer. Panless cage traps that nest together for about $25 a piece
-
Let’s see some of these diy cages!

I'll support the Businesse that support us :tup:
Tomahawk hand down :tup: :tup: I've been using their traps for 40 years.

Bruce's traps are as good as they get! I use to build my own but time was/isnt in my favor. Add materials, equipment and time plus the learning curve a numerous failures to "get it right" and it just made sense to start catching fire in a proven trap. Plus Bruce is a huge supporter of WSTA and local to Washington State. His traps work on a large variety of furbearers.
