Has anyone put cable restraints on a slide to hide your catch out of sight? Any advice would help.

I have never tried it but I think it would work as long as when the catch is made there is some resistance to tighten that cable down and then they can take it with them down the wire. The only thing is on a cable there is going to be a lot of disturbance down the slider. Might be hard to keep the critters hid.

Well, if your laws won't allow any entanglement then maybe a slide wire would not be the way to go.

As long as the slide is going away from the trail, you should be good that way. If you have to cross the trail or parallel to the trail then it could be interesting.

Thanks guys! It’s not any type of law in the way, I just want to hide it from a road. I am going to put the slide going away from the trail so it should work out. Sniper you always give great advice.
