I haven't tried it. Sounds like you need to work on how you position your locks and your support system if its possible the wind is knocking down your snares as well.

I don't know If that helps eliminating chew outs.Maybe Newt will chime In. Can you set In entanglement? If so that will eliminate cable chew outs. Dead coyotes don't chew.

Same 24 hr check, pain in finding areas to set them as you have to be so far away from entanglement. Last edited by Saskfly; 11/26/20 01:41 PM.
