A little like a circle. I was wondering if other beaver trappers that had them, saw a increase in catches. Or if its not even worth the trouble

But If your trap Is partially submerged you want the trigger wires out of site. So I don't see any reason to use a circle type trigger. The forum Know It All according to Muskrat

I dont see any advantage for beaver over a regular 2 prong trigger that can be configured for different applications. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Or if its not even worth the trouble I replace all my body grip traps with circle triggers. Cant tell me that circle trigger dont increse my catch.
