There is no way this should have happen.
Sucked boating a bit to solid ground to get I off.
Good thing is the water is still cold,

I thought in Washington you had to cage trap your body extremities?


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

My thing is there should be no way to get captured this way.
Maybe it is the ora of the State.

That one of them belisles catching critters that spook and try to flip off the trap?

I don't think your hand belongs where its at. Try carrying it by the chain next time, alot more comfortable.

Should have caught higher up on the pad and not the fingers, consider a little more pan tension next time.
FYI been releasing myself from double longs for decades. You get a little system down, and you have to be able to take the constant giggling in background from your two sons also. That can hurt more than the fingers, trust me.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Looks like a good left front foot catch in the ole upside down dirthole set. Bet there was some Backbreaker and jacks links down the hole.
