I have a similar trap. It works much better in the winter around here. It seems there is a lot of feed during the summer months. I just started baiting it but, I am always looking for other ways. Scott

OK so I am admitting my ignorance here. I am new to this forum. Is a moderator what we call a silencer? If it is do your laws require a special permit?

So I am looking for some direction here (get to admit my ignorance). What do you tie the snares with (material) and how do you tie them? I will be monitoring this a
