THATS AN EASY ONE ......... NETTER MOST LADS WILL BE ABLE TO GET THERE HANDS ON A BIT OF OLD ELECTRICAL FLEX EASILY AND STRIP IT AND PIKE TRACE WIRE ... AND GIVE IT A GO ........ WHERE AS BRASS ....... UNLESS YOU UN - SPIN AN OLD SNARE HAS TO BE BOUGHT BY THE DRUM ....... FECKIN EXPENSIVE IT IS AS WELL MATE I WAS TALKING ABOUT LADS GIVEING IT A GO WITH VERY LITTLE OUT LAY SOMETIMES I USE COPPER AND STAINLESS STEEL BRAID TO MAKE UP SNARES OF DIFFERING TYPES MAINLY RAT AND SQUIRREL ..... WHY ? ......... BECAUSE I CAN GET IT FREE AND IT MAKES A FINE NOOSE

WELL LADS , TRACE WIRE ETC ............ COULD BE USED FOR SNARES , SNAREMAN GAVE ME A NICE LITTLE ROLL .......... OF SOMETHING SIMILAR ITS BRAIDED HOWEVER , .............GETTING THE FECKER TO KEEP A NICE SHAPE IS A PAIN ....... EVEN WHEN SPUN WITH SIX STRANDS , .... WHAT IVE DONE IS USED THE OLD RUBY SNARES WHICH SNAREMAN AND GEORDIE SENT ME DOWN .... AS AN EXAMPLE .......AND........... IVE SPUN A FEW UP WITH TWO STRANDS OF COPPER WIRE , IT IMPROVES THE SHAPE HOLDING OF THE NOOSE AND THE TENSION QUALITYS ..........GIVE IT A TRY FELLAS ALL THE BEST DUCKWING

WELL IANROB , YOU GOT THE JIST OF THE POST WITHOUT ME HAVEING TO WRITE 2 FECKIN PAGES ........ SNAREING ISNT AS EASY AS READING A BOOK ITS ABOUT GETTING OUT THERE , MISSING CATCHES FIGUREING OUT WHY ? ........ THEN RIGHTING YOUR WRONGS ..... AND MAKING THAT CATCH , SNAREMANS RIGHT AS ALWAYS ........... A SIMPLE THING LIKE THE DIAMETER OF THE POLE CAN AFFECT THE HEIGHT OF YER SNARE AND THE TARGET SPECIES RUNNING IT ,........ ITS MAYBE HARD TO SEE FROM THE PHOTO BUT I ACTUALLY SET THE WIRE ON A NARROW POINT IN THE POLE , BUT TO KEEP THE WIRE LOOP AT THE WIDTH I WANTED

TOO RIGHT THEYRE STRONG SNAREMAN , THESE SNARES HAVE BEEN ON ALL SEASON AND HAVE NOW HAD 27 SQIGS AND THE SCALELY TAIL IN 10 WIRES , AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOS THEY HAVE HAD SOME USE , THE QUICK CLIPS ARE AN EASY WAY OF REMOVEING THE SNARES .......... THE SWIVELS I ADDED JUST TO TAKE A BIT OF PRESSURE FROM THE SNARE DURING THE CATCH .... I THINK ITS WORKED AS THE WIRES ARE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE ,............ I ALSO ADDED THE CLEAR PLASTIC TUBEING TO THE SNARES IN A MINI VERSION OF THE FOX WIRES SNAREMAN USES AS A TWO SECOND ATTACHMENT TO THE WIRE TEALERS ,......... RATS
