Slide wires don’t seem to get a lot of mention that I can find, but I can’t help but think there has got to be a time and a place that I may want to use one. What size wire would I used when targeting coyotes fox bobcat and coons? Thanks for the advise!

use cable. 3/32 is good.

Thanks Danny. Do you use a lock or just the swivel at the end of the chain?

I just use the swivel hole as the lock. And 2nd on the cable.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I like 1/8 for dry slide wires .most universal swivels can be pulled backwards on 3/32 in a dry situation or if slide is not banjo tight .
