checked my line out back this morning. i have out 4 dogless #2 bridgers bedded in peat moss with calcium chloride. with some severe up coming weather i decided to freshen sets with some night owl crossbones and sprinkled some more calcium chloride. Im thinking about moving and remaking sets after this weather rolls out and i can get some of these traps out of the ground or should i just leave them and re bed and freeze proof as necessary?

Depends on how bad the original beds are. If its easier to rebed, id rather do that.

If you set on sign, I'd re-make. Otherwise might be better to move them.
2 important rules come to mind. Set on sign and make sure your trap is bedded rock solid. Location and solid bedding are what will give you success.
