I don’t snare much, and my only real use for it would be for my body grips. Normally I use about an 8 foot piece of 1/8 cable on my 330s for beaver and otter, along with the chain that has 2 or 3 swivels. Can I use this smaller cable for beaver and otter, or would I risk losing my trap? Thanks! Ave don't go where the beaver don't flow
