Other than buying new traps....
Does anybody have a way to modify the jaw size tom make it smaller?
Say take 6" & make it 5 1/2"?
Thanks


Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere.
Or so I've been told.

Inside lamination would help but I doubt you'd squeeze out a half inch.

Inside lamination will decrease jaw spread, unless you are measuring to outside of the jaws in which case you'll need to buy new trap jaws if there are any available that fit the frame.
