If $$ was not a problem which would you buy the Jake trap or the no-bs k9 extreme JR strictly for coyotes and bobcats in the cold snowy northeast as a late season trapper after deer season.

I'll get lambasted for this but I use the MB650 for late deep snow conditions.. But I've never owned a Jake.

I would opt for the extreme not the Jr.if
Snow is going to be a factor.

I own both, and for me it would be the K9 extreme. Mainly because price. One is $250 a dz, the other $380 dz. I got my jakes in on trade and it’s a fine trap, but honestly I don’t see the hype in them.

Either one will not disappoint you. I use both for winter trapping. I'm partial to Jake's, wire levers.

If fox aren't in the area, get the extremes and have Kendall inside laminate them so they're legal. With the fox I have around I am using the Jr.s and love them. Like other replies I have never held a Jake

The juniors fit me best, the Extremes take too much waxed dirt to bed. The next dozed I purchas will have IL OL. The juniors are paw friendly and bed well. For me a 6 inch jaw spread is just right for coyote with fox present even with up to 4 inches of snow.

Here's a big difference

Set your favorite trap and a Jake
Take a 1x1 wood scrap about 2 feet long and hold it between your thumb and finger
gently push down on each pan and set them off
That Jake trap will "JUMP UP" 4 - 6 inches
It will knock the wood right out of your hand...the others don't

Have not found another trap that jumps like that
