I need a few more DP's.
I've looked at MTP and most of the DP's have some bad ratings.
Was wondering if anyone has used No BS DP's. Like/hate them?
They're priced with most DP brands so the cost is out the window.
I have Duke,Z's, Daggers and Alcatraz.
Was leaning toward the Dukes. There is really no contest here. All you need is more COON DAGGERS !!!! Best Dog Proof on the market, bar none. And all AMERICAN MADE too !!! w Coon Daggers are my favorite. They are some tough traps. Very strong springs as well and hold up over time. Push and pull trigger that can be locked open is what I really like. Stable pushing in the mud as well with a drain hole. They hold some big old boars no problem. Never lost one.

Has anyone used Yancy's I believe it call, I think made in California, I had few an sold them, never try much them, they had a slide door on both sides I have caught hundreds of coons in them. They catch and hold coons great, even better than the modern DPs IMO, However they require a setter to set and remove the coons, and to maximize their ability, you need to weld on a small stabilizer and weld on small hinges to hold the doors. All that adds up to too much trouble for most trappers, but they can be had for cheap these days so if someone didn't mind the tinkering they would perfect for them.

I have a few Daggers. They are heavy duty. I like them alot better then some other brands.
BUT I have had pull outs with them. The coon must of been a bear. The set area was all tore up.
Still haven't made my mind up yet. Got a month or so before I have to order the traps.
WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO TRAP!

PCS featherlight cast aluminum traps are my new favorite. Easy to carry a bunch. Made in USA as well.
