Going to order some cage traps. They will be used for primarily coons. Willing to spend good money. Your advice?

Maybe I’m crazy but after having cage sets that nestle together, I couldn’t imagine owning and dealing with anything else. Even the biggest raccoon with go in those smaller cages of the sets.

The ones I have were made by "Cagemaker" (I think) on here. I think he was from Wyoming. They have been EXCELLENT and I wish I had bought more when they were available.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Nothing wrong with heavy duty 12x12 Duke cages for coons. You can catch more coons in more traps for the same money as fewer of the high dollar brands.

I have many made by Wickenkamp, and don't need to look at any others. They work well, are well built and they last. What else could you want in a trap?

Cagemaker would be the Schroder trap made in Nebraska. Someone new bought the business and John is trying to get him up to speed on making cage traps again.
