Is this beneficial for trapping coyotes and cats, or should I stick with how the jump traps were designed.

…. I don’t have experience using jump traps … but from looking at them there seems to be a reason the design is no more

My advice would be sell them and get better designed traps partner


Insert profound nonsense here

What Savell said. Utah requires 3/16" offsets for traps not set under water. But I wouldn't weld lugs on undersprings for cats and coyotes. There are much better traps available. One missed cat would pay for several dozen good traps in this market. A couple coyotes, with the increase to $100 bounty in deer areas, will cover a dozen traps.


United we stand.
