How do you set your traps? I can't do mine because I'm not strong enough to get it down with my hands.

What type of trap... Long spring, Coil Spring or Conibear style and what size 1, 2, 3, or 110, 220, or 330... There are setters made for types and sizes.

Trap setters will save your hands and makes it go faster I use em for dps and coils. Great for after it gets super cold out
