I just take mine in every night even put them on a drier if get wet inside. I doubt Unless yours are really old. That it's been that cold you would crack them unrolling them. It's usually dry rot cracks my old ones. Handling wire has put more holes in my gauntlets than cold.

They will be used to the cold and won’t wear out as quick.

He didn't tell you to put them in the oven....I hang mine up filled with crumpled newspaper. You should write some of this stuff down. You ask the same questions over and over. Your memory sucks. How do you ever find your traps?


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

I have a friend that always called and would ask for advice about work that I got him started in. I would spill my guts to him for what it was worth. He would do the opposite of what I said every time.
