Mb750s for me, my brother bought one of kendall's beaver traps at NTA. So we will see how it does for him.

I really dig the 330s, but I'm considering footholds as well... Not entirely sure though. Nothing's moving down here Did I not give ya a foothold to use? Guess when ya visit again we will figure it out! we shall! All I got was some snares & that 330

No 4 or 14 jump or sleepy creek 41/2.
The old traps without an adjustable pan you can either file a miles trigger into it or do like I do and place a toothpick size twig under the pan, works for me

I use Jakes and MB750's. Both with rubber jaws. Nothing against the 750's but always seem to reach for the Jakes first. They will swallow a back foot and they have a lot of holding power.

I had the MB-750s, Bridger #5 long spring, and CDR7.5.
The CDR is the best of the three. Although, I have heard the springs on the MB have been beefed up and hold better now. I lost too many beaver in them when they had the weaker springs.
Most in this country have things people in other countries only dream about. Yet, they want America to be more like those other countries.
