My dye ones always were a shade of black. Thinking about doing some brown. What pro or cons of brown are there? If any. What color do you paint your 330's?

I would think brown would blend In better when using that trap In a castor mound set when the trap Is partially out of the water. Completely under water It won't make any difference.

I would go with formula one over painting.It will cost a little more but well worth it.I know where talking traps but man does that stuff work on snares.You can hardly see a snare that has been dipped and it last a long time on traps and snares.
