Hi everyone!
Here is a list of my top 5 favorite trapping suppliers:
(1) Minnesota Trapline Products.
(2) Schmitt Enterprises
(3) Kaatz Bros Lures
(4) F&T Fur Harvesters.
(5) Hilltop Outdoor Supply
What do you guys think? Who agrees? In MY opinion you can't beat Minnesota Trapline Products! All these places I think are the best!

Here's my opinion.

Tied for 1st!

MTP and F&T. I've order more from them.

A close 2nd Cumberlands. I've had no problems with them.

I've order from several other supply houses,but not enough to rate them. Although I've had a problem TWICE with one company that will remain a secret!!

IMO; All of the large suppliers pretty much sell the same product(s). So it really comes down to service. MTP & FnT dominate that category.

I would add PSC outdoors to that list, I would put them at the top. Great service, great line of products and great people. Ole wonderful Asa wouldn't have allowed them to take over his line if they weren't good people. And, John is a member here who contributes, that says a lot to me!!

I think it comes down to the people running them.

Gerald Schmitt and Cumberlands is where I spend my money when I have to order something. All great folks (not that others aren't).

I have dealt with MTP and Cumberlands and have great luck with both. Very good people working at both companies.

You might try reading and following the entire thread. Yes, YOU did name 5.

Walleyed' comment was in regards to I missed' post. HE only named 3.

You gotta pay close attention to avoid looking foolish..........
