What is your "dream" predator trap set-up? Mine would be a Duke #1 3/4, #2, or #3 coilspring, 2 coil, offset & laminated jaws, base-plated, with free-falling, night-latched pan shank, a heavy-duty dog, 1 foot of #3 MB chain, 3 MB crunch proof swivels, an MB super-stake on chain. That is if I couldn't have an MB traps! laugh

For multi species land sets MB550 OS 4 coil, with a JC Conner rod swivel attached to the D ring with a 30D nail J hook attached to 3 links of #3twist link then a crunch proof then 12 inches of #3 straight link to another crunch proof then 4 more links of #3 attached to a 30d S hook. anchored with a chain stake. I love swivels LOL


But my real dream trap would be the same chain set up with a similar trap with a 6 inch jaw spread , adjustable dogless wink grin

The one that never misses a catch.


The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.

JC Connor's Jake Trap -- as is -- out of the box, but with some sort of LoJack recovery system built into it for thievery, which doesn't make any sense because that would likely cost ridiculously more than the trap itself. I's a dream trap so it doesn't need to make sense.

My other dream trap would be an LPC #4 double long, with a larger pan.

Mine would be a stock jake as well, with a chained super stake, and all j hooks welded. If you drive it in all the way no one is gonna steal it.......... whistle ........too much work.
