Not really. I run my cat cubbies with the pan on top.

Fisher and marten on the bottom.

Born I know a lot of guys who do it but personally I don't like my trap recessed that much

Very interesting. I have never seen or heard of anyone setting a box with the pan on top.


Each day is a gift. LIVE IT with gratitude.

When this one comes back through he will either find a snare or a 3N before he ever gets to the box.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I pulled my couple of boxes on sign yesterday….that I had set in conjunction with coyote snare bait stations…the roads and trails are blowing in and it’s turning into a snowmobile line. I pulled the coyote stuff too.

Hit it with their forehead and keeps the set off traps and weasel/squirrel catch down.

Just bend the triggah wires back like this. It lets the red squirrels...ermine..mice ..go in and out..for the most part.

Leaving the set ready for a fisher. It's also more inviting ...and the trigger wires

Are not in its face. .
