Frozen ground should not be bending traps and neither should single catches. I can't imagine having to adjust a trap after every catch in this day and age. Trying to save $60 on something that will last decades is ridiculous. Just my opinion.

Time management is a big deal when you work full time and run 100 sets on a daily check law. Simply put I won't use a trap I have to retune after catches, period.... I sold all my traps I had to do that with, since I've ran the MB550s that all went away for the last 10 seasons and a bunch of coyotes. Wipe the trap off after a catch and rebed it, off I go.. Save a second here and there it adds up to hours saved so more time to set up more locations and trap more coyotes.. I'll pay more and end up way ahead by the end of the season.. Not bashing any trap or manufacture, just common sense line management..
