Isle LaMotte is a small island only about 10 miles long and a couple wide across Lake Champlain from me, s few years ago i picked these up over there. yesterday i was back over there again on a tip, i will show ya what im getting this trip latter today. maybe get some help here on a few of what i gots. paul this was a great idea for a board!

Lol never seen a trunk full. That's a bunch traps. See some cool ones. I agree great idea on the thread Paul.

A couple large Triumphs in the back, a NH or HN longspring - sweet!

got that bunch foir 300, there was some odd stuff there here the sorting table



this one caught my eye little 0 junp

The nail someone added is bigger then the trap.lol

ok heres the collectables from the deal today, these things are all complete and not a break or trappers mark on any of them, pics don't do them justice, any info would be greatly appreciated ,after blowing off the 5 I realized what a find it was!

great find,nice traps,thanks for sharing,I don't know the newhouse stuff by I am sure someone will

Thanks for posting!

The condition is awesome,,I would say u had a carrer day,,Congradulations

I think I see a 7 hole escape proof longspring

Great find! thanks for showing.

heres a pic of the thing diggerdale, any info on it?"its in used shape" thanks guys, I don't know were these were stored but there was like a coating of oily sawdust on them. the more I blew/wiped it off the happier I got. the bear trap had a old tag that was rotted off except for the wire and a bit of the cardboard. I was wondering if it was the original store price tag?

All I can say is Jackpot!! You got everything from mouse trap to bear trap.

OMG! You had the kind of find I dream of! Hope you got a good deal! Those are some nice traps.

ya I think I did real good price wise. thankyou. just got don tooth brushing one of the atc #3s got the rest of the gunk off with some gun solvent, looks better than the pic, my cell phone sucks for good pics. I got to get my good camera fired up

Fishguts, I was just ribbing ya a little. I THINK the escapeproofs didn't come in a longspring (but maybe someone that knows can chime in) and am stumped how the stoploss spring on yours can rest on the longspring. Here is a pick of one I got. The stoploss is in the set position. And am nursing a sore knuckle to get it pictured that way!

I SEE IT NOW! There's a pin holding it.

oooo heck I thought it was a factory job. must have been done long ago, the pantana on everything is the same?

Could be a factory Job. There's a lot more I don't know than do.

Yep, like those old Vic and Gibbs Two Triggers, you set it - then take the pin out.
