I wish 330's were legal here at fence crawl unders and cat cubbies. Body grips have to be used with a little caution even 220's. IMO most trappers are aware of that. Seems to me like on private property it would not be a problem. I have a friend who use belisles exclusively for beaver and otter. Has caught and held several otter by the tail. Looks like that new duke could do it too.

Have not run a straight coon line in awhile but duke 1.5's have worked great for me. Have some old duke 330's. They don't owe me anything either. If you are upset by knock offs I would be interested in buying your bolt action rifles. At a discount. Unless of course they are made by mauser. You would want to keep those.

Curious what the perceived need for the super mag is?

Impressive trap and as I learned on here and on trap shed is it doesn’t matter what others think if you like it and you pay for it good for you and if you sell it and are happy with it than good for you I’m happy you got new traps but can tell some are either jelious or too tight to spend money but congrats on your purchase

Don't see Belisle supporting trapping in the US like Duke does...

It’s that time of year lol. We have been laying a lot of brick and that sucks the moisture out of your hands even worse than the cold weather. My wife keeps me a healthy supply of the working hands stuff and a couple others but it doesn’t help much. We laid about 9,000 brick today, that takes out moisture faster than you can put it in

Just be sure to report back with some catch pics and another review of how they worked in the field.

Completely closing jaws (feet and tail caught critters still there when u get there.)

Belisle type safeties (much safer than the floppy safeties.)

Spring eyes cannot go over jaw corners (some otters will escape a 330 if that happens.)

Thanks for the review. Got all the Belisles I need for the moment in that size, but if I need more, I'll give the Duke's a try....

if for no other reason than to upset Boco.

Looks like a very nice trap copied or whatever still looks like it’ll do the trick.

Got the dozen rigged up, tuned, tagged and ready to go in the water. All were very consistent and tuned quickly. Looking forward to getting them set

CD2,
Keep us informed whether the jaws bend too easily with a catch.

I know all we have to do is lay em on a log and tap em back straight, but maybe Duke has used some stronger steel.

And don't forget that dog. It allows full closure on rat tails also.
