Bob trapper B Joined: Jan 2007 Northern Nevada	I own a couple dozen. Used to use them a lot beaver trapping, but I don’t trap beaver anymore. I have thought about using them for bobcat and coyote, but I never have. It’s legal here, but I’d hate to catch some chukar hunters dog in one. "I have two guns, one for each of ya."

I have nothing clever to put here.

Larry Baer trapper Joined: Aug 2011 Peoria County Illinois	I like them and use the Duke #5. I also have a few of the Blake and Lamb #44 DLS and they are actually my favorites. I have a couple with Oberto dogless triggers that are the best ones. I don't think I have ever had one sprung without a beaver in it. Just passin through

My favorite is B&L #44 LS but they are hard to find and expensive. Is it possible that sometime you could be convinced to sell some of those B&L #44 LS traps? Big jaw spread and light weight to carry far.

Make em a touch smaller. Wind Blew, crap flew, out came the line crew

I've thought about doing my bridger cs, just haven't pulled the trigger (pun intended)! Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!
