That would explain the connection to "St. Mary's!"

I have a busy day Saturday but am going to try not to miss it. I mean, the guys a plugger- after 50 some years with no proof or evidence he is still after it. Its at Black Lick Pa 15716, town library at 1. Roughly between Pittsburgh and Altoona Pa.

Not many otter here and we can harvest 1/season. But have caught and held, coyotes and beaver with this. Traditional L shaped locks are fine for me . In-line swivel bodies as a lock are too big holed/thin/soft of metal and don't last for me. Mine are different than what you folks use. 1.5 Coil or 11, in line double swivel at trap then 5-8" of chain, no more, HD S-hook to lock then 6' or 10' of 1/8" cable (2
lengths color coded) with T-stake at each end. Lately (the last 10 years) I have been putting a swivel (any kind) on the upper end of the drowner cable to reduce any kinking of the cable - it lasts longer. The more trap chain the more chance I get of wrapping. Don't want that critter to have any freedom to the side of the drowner cable and he says "its easy to go in this (water) direction". Watch them on the game cam - they panic, jump and head anywhere it will take them easily from the trap site. Then they become a resident of the fur shed for me. As far as the set type - you can use this or the hundreds of sites on the tube to make this chain length work. Enclosed is gear I use at a set, the Christmas tinsel and lure in the syrup bottle will get enough attention to make a catch for me. Saves on bait when I am short, My experience............................... the mike
