I appreciate all the help and feedback. I know what Ill be doing this weekend. I'm pretty confident I should at least be able to pull the cans and figure out which one is the issue. Hopefully something came loose at one of the cans.
And for that price, I’d expect a journeyman to be on site. Isn’t it illegal for them to sent 2 apprentices out by themselves? Here, they’re supposed to be 1:1 ratio on a job site.
I could be wrong about their status. They're both listed as apprentices on their website, but they may have graduated by now. Here one of them would have to be a master electrician

I have hundreds of Duke 1.5 CS and I love them. They are a workhorse trap! I did extensive mods but I would have done the same to any trap. Mine are setup with #2 music wire springs, outside lamination, and stainless pan bolt/nut. There is no pan creep and they fire fast! They hold whatever gets in them…from rats, mink, beaver, and otter…I’ve caught and held them all in a Duke 1.5.
Duke makes a great #5 DLS…straight out of the box, they are a great beaver trap. They come base plated, center swiveled, and a PIT style pan. Hard to beat that.
Now Duke body traps are a different story. I don’t have room for them on my line. I’ve got hundreds of BMI body grips in 110, 160, and 330. I don’t think they are made anymore but they are phenomenal traps!

I'm thinking the "trapper formally known as Savell" has thrown in with Smash, who has also seemed to have disappeared, on a house cat farm growing kittens for the unfortunate ones. Or Yotetrapper runned both of them off.

Ate down there at Cattlemen's a few years ago....Liked the steak pictures on the wall that illustrated the degree of how cooked through your chosen cut would be.
The well done steak pic was labeled "ruined" Lol....So true.

Should she be arrested and charged with DUI if she were in her car and sped off to avoid being captured or assaulted? What if she hit another car or, GOD forbid, a person?
What if she pulled her CC and pulled the trigger too soon or too late and killed or injured a pedestrian or someone driving a car? Her faculties are definitely impaired as well as her judgement.
Do you see how intoxication muddies all waters? A guy pulls along side my car and starts shooting at me. I swerve into his vehicle and he crashes killing his passenger. Am I criminally liable? Which state?

I've bought kits on Amazon. Hollow fiberglass pole sections steel ferrules and elastic cord. You cut the fiberglass poles to length and assemble everything. I used a diamond cut off wheel on an angle grinder and it worked pretty good without fraying the cut end of the pole.

If sold would these lands not be on the tax base then? I have stated this before we used to give land to settlers to develop, why not do this now? An historic example of what really happens to state lands once gone they are gone,,, And Utah the DNR just bought private lands for habitat and recreation Just think if all lakes and national forests were no longer public. State school trust lands: Minnesota typically had 2 sections per township. The county I lived in all school lands were sold for building and operating the schools and most ran out of money by 1930. Those same lands at current rent would bring in $340,000, or $2650 last in tax year . Thats what politicians do,,, over and over. Besides the lotterry took care of the under funding in most states so we dont need school trust lands

Could be a healthy sized colony if they used both lodges. Not sure if there’s ice there over winter? If one was abandoned, it’d generally show. Quite often out here, even a regular size colony will have an auxiliary den over winter.
Maybe they were just travellers.
Them traps certainly ain’t cheap. I’m getting a couple used ones this July for 1/2 price, the fella has around 25 that he rarely uses and willing to part with some. Probably won’t use them much, but the price is right and they’re a good tool to have in the arsenal.

I was a commercial trapper in the 70's and 80's
Then a little hobby trapping in Washington, Utah and Idaho then just for fun and challenge With plans to run long and hard just for kicks after retirement.
Health situations took my feet out from underneath me,, and the guys I wanted to trap with,,, An that stupid non resident regulation in Minnesota
Health has improved, Set a few traps last year,, Recieved a check and thinking back I would rather catch 100 animals than a handful, dealing with problematic trappers brought back in for the money

I'm starting to consider moving there! LOL. I wouldn't like the heat. Ohio is alright. We need a bobcat season, and we can't use anything bigger than a No.2 or #155 on land. Other than that we're alright. And the snares have to be relaxing. We don't have to set as a cable restraint though, thank goodness.
