Inside-5 1/4, outside-5 11/16 (without lamination, from their catalog). I believe they use 3/16 laminations. The catalog says "jaw lamination is custom made, it's between 3/16 and 1/4 rod. Top and bottom is flat and sides are round".

The inside lam is smaller than the outside.

They charge way too much for shipping 32.00 I think.

Kendall is the only vendor carrying these unless you find them from a tailgater.

You won't be disappointed with the traps. The Extremes and Jr's are awesome. The 1.5's are the best I've ever seen. I know I saved a TON on shipping by buying them at the convention.

Which vendor did you purchase the extremes from? Assuming you got them at the UP convention......

My laminated JRs are 6" outside 5 1/4" inside. I only run laminated on the JRs .
I have a dozen unlaminated Extremes but don't like them as much as the laminated Extremes. Easier on the feet and legs of fox when laminated IMO.


Do something worthwhile, take a kid trapping

I think he is just happy with his new traps...nothing wrong with that....I'm sure he has set them about 100 times by now...

I have set them multiple times, ambush grin, not for trapping purposes, just for fun. Like a kid who gets a bike for Christmas, in the middle of a snow storm. The kid HAS to ride it in the basement a few times, even if he can't go outside on a bike ride. To answer your question- No-BS had a booth set up, and I bought them straight from Kendall's brother, Kurt. He is a very good guy and spent quite a while talking with me. Hawks- all the footholds I bought from No-BS are outside laminated, even the 1.5's. they are all VERY strong and fast, and can see the benefit of the lams.

After 2 years running the KO 1.5s I agree. They're the best.

Man! I wish I could go after cats down here! We don't have a lot, but they are around. Last year while coyote hunting, I had one almost pounce on me. I heard a little movement to my left and as I was hitting the call (mouth call), I turned my head and it took off like lightning. It was only about 5 yards away by the time I saw it. It was dark and I didn't get a good look at it, but I would guess that it was 25-30 pounds. Not huge, but big enough to scare ya in the middle of the night!

Exciting I'm sure.....not a lot of cats up here, I put in many hours scouting for a cat, got lucky to finally locate one or two in an area
no luck picking one up but came close...spent time after our big 10 day season and kept tabs on the area ended up finding several great locations for this coming season....snow is your friend while looking for cats, easier to pin one down...

The short cat season and the short limit stinks...I'd love to go to the UP and trap cats but with a limit of 2 no way..

Does anyone know the load limit on the chained WolfFangs that come on the NO-BS DP's? I was thinking about putting them on the JR's and some of my 550's.

What size chain do they have? I would think the load would be greater than chained super stakes.

Not sure of the chain size...#2 maybe? But, due to the coating that comes on it, I'm not real sure if the links are welded and don't know if it is American or foreign. You can look on their website and see a picture. I would just hate to put them on different footholds and find out the hard way. I'll PM Kendall and get some more information. I'll let you all know what he says.
