Quote: It is unlawful to use a trap with teeth on the jaws unless when set, placed, and tended, the trap is completely covered with water. "...in a very few days we succeeded in taking over one hundred beaver, the skins of which were worth ten dollars per pound." Jim Beckwourth (1856)

How do you measure the inside spread to the outside edge? Guessing it's to the widest part of the inside spread. Indiana specifies measured between jaw posts and perpendicular to the frame.
