I’ve heard from some that each are the best.

I’d like to figure it out once and for all, so I can order a dozen.

Right now I’m thinking BMI
Thanks

I don't know about best but the BMI's are very good,at a good price.I don't know if you are aware,but they are very difficult to get.The Belisles may be your best bet but hopefully some good water trappers will reply.

For me I like belisle. When u can catch a otter or beaver by foot it holds it. I caught a small coon and oppsum by tail. They drowned but still i had them. I like the safety's on them.

Safeties on Belisle are worth the money.


My heart belongs to my family.
My body belongs to my work.
My soul belongs to the woods.

Hard to beat the quality of a Belisle.

I thought that BMI went out of business ? Either way I would go with Belisle

BMI's were the Cadillac of bodygrips until Belisles came along . They are both true ten X ten opening . The belisles set easier have great safeties store more compact ,and are easier to stabilise than BMI . I didnt sell my BMIs to buy Belisles i just added more Belisles to my line .

BMI BT300 are a quality, budget friendly trap with a quality, 4-way trigger. $165/doz. BT300 is a 9x10 trap. The actual “330” is a 10x10, but more expensive.


Belisle are a Cadillac. Best safeties on the market, a pleasure to use. Will hold whatever fires it. My preference for adc work.
