It would stop deer catchs
Thanks for posting 2traps. I like the old style better and do wish I had some of the stainless one because they are stouter.
i have sold off my reglar steel ones .After trap'n with the Stainless Steel ones.
Thin cable has rubber tube to prevent cutting. Larger 1/8 inch wire dosnt and does not cut the paw. Love the foot snare. Work just as good if not better then modern foothold. I would run bunch if you didn't have to use new snare after every catch. I have had possum and coon slip the noose but coyote.
Cost of the snare is nothing when your live market trap'n.
I'v held bobcat by two toes using 1/8" 7x19 stainless steel cable.
Beav, havent you trapped Mississippi live market in the past?
The snare beds some what like a DLS.I havent seen that a problem.
I'v used them i mud. But not snow.
I saw DNR demonstrate the regular Belisle at the 2016 state convention. It seemed to me that if someone was having trouble with toe catches, foot snares might be especially good for those people. All in all, they seemed like a good set, but people here just aren't enthused about them. I brought it up several times this weekend at the state convention, and nobody was selling them and few seemed interested in trying them. I haven't tried them, but am anxious to order 1 or 2 to try. I've been pondering them for a year. My delay is largely due to trying to figure out a BAD that will hold most yotes but release most deer. I had 1 vendor tell me if I order foot snare(s) from them, they'd put on whatever BAD I want.
In my research this past year, the Belisle seems like a better all around setup than the Fremont. Wi requires inline shock springs on them. I don't think that thin rubber coated wire is legal here.
I have the 6" in stock in Steel and Stainless Steel.
