Hardest part it seems is bedding well while trying to keep then working when the ground is warm but below freezing temps.  At least for me anyway. Salt is my answer to that problem  Just watch out for the pookie's

Here in PA body grips have to be in a box with the trap recessed 7" to the trigger  And the opening can be no larger than 50 square inches  And a 160 or smaller, if I remember correctly  I use 1.75 c/s  I sure wished those were the rules here in Maine.
