If you do it right, sprung traps should be extremely rare. Trigger off the the side and bait between the bottom jaws and just hang it. good stuff Ray thanks....one question I would have why is your bait stick is longer than the trap jaws?

But have used baited 330's and caught beaver. If put where the beaver find them they work well. "Not Really, Not Really" Mark J Monti "MJM you're a jerk."
