baited box for marten mink skunk weasel fisher and squirrel
snared jackpot for fox lynx and wolf.
Dirthole pocket etc sets basically useless here in fur season.
many sets good for beaver but if just one would be snarepole.Good in open water and under ice.
For otter would be millette set.
If limited to one tool would be snare hands down for everything.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Pocket,cubby,dirt hole…all are similar baited sets.

I would make a baited set.

No one set. Ever situation is different and I would only plan for that target. How can you limit yourself.

A blind set isn't just one type of set. It can take a thousand different forms. Even a flat set on a trail is just a blind set with lure. So, I'd say a blind set, but with lure in some situations.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

If I could only make one set? I'd set another trap with dad.
