20 years ago they had a pretty bad rap. You couldn't confuse today's dukes with the ones they first come out.

Not offending me but I think Dukes are great! I know someone that put out a #1 coil for mink or coon and caught a fox on the back foot and it held.

Ok, things just got weird. Take it to PM. Lol

I vote for the no BS 1.5 over the Duke. But I guide them heavy, because that big pan can get you some toe catches on animals with big paws.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.
