What is that clip you use on your marten traps? I can' quite see it clearly.


Just doing what I want now.

Hey viking, here's a pic of what they look like. From my understanding they are made by sauvageau for this specific purpose, they come on their 2001 series traps. I make my own cables for it with a bench swager and aluminum ferrules. On the clip side I put a washer and a stop and on my anchor end I just put a small loop with a double ferrule. Of course the first one I put out that caught a marten failed, but that's because I didn't swage the stop on good. Lucky my ldl 120 mag took care of him quick, he didn't go anywhere. I double checked the rest to make sure they hold. The last 4 marten caught with them worked very well. Fast and easy to switch traps.

Kitty's are scarce in the area I'm trapping. If I happen to see more sign I'll put more sets out for them. But for now I don't plan on putting the hammer on them.
