anybody use the quick Snaps for beaver? going to Arkansas end of the month and need a quick way to go from


cable or the slide rod.

Yep used em, tossed em when we lost beaver

not want i wanted to hear.where they older Snaps used for a couple years before you lost trap and beaver?

Id suggest the sleep ez hooks

Not a good idea for that particular attachment. I only use them with my 330’s, and at the other end of the anchor, not next to the trap. No second thought using those snaps even in at wolverine sets. I hitch my cable before the snap so there is basically no potential for much load or shock to the actual snap.

I wouldn't if you want to keep your catch and trap. I used the quick latch carabiner to connect my cable to my weight. I got luckey the beaver some how got twisted up in another sets drowning cable dragging
that cable around before wringing off. I lost the beaver but at least keep my trap.

My clip was still on the cable the weight wasn't. I sure have a wadded up mess of cables to unwrap.

I would use one of those links with a threaded closure for your application. Still fast but secure.

I used quick clips (3/16”) carabiner for 7 yrs full time beaver trapping and never had 1 mess up.
$35/100

I have used the Brass Plated Trigger Snap (3/4") for beaver for over 10 years and have never had a problem. I also use quick links.

I'd stick with quick links, doesn't take much time with a pair of pliers to open and close them.

this or HD split rings, quick links if you don't mind carrying a tool to open and close them. (not an problem for me I always carry these in my pocket... pliers )

Those are what I use too. I use em on my coyote traps too. Never a compromise.

Just remember to close them tight, I know a guy who didn't and off went his coyote and trap when he went to check one day.
