made this the outher day

[ulverston moocher 60]

Me and my old lad made this the outher day we started off with a tredel plate trigger this didnt work so we swaped for a bait hook trigger but the last couple of nights we have set it the next day all the bait has gone but not triggered the drop door so we made the trigger a bit more sensative and cought this greedy little sod tonight so thought I would throw a couple of pics up, the trap has been re baited and set il post pics of anything else I get in it

Thanks for taking a look.

is it a larsen, or fox trap

I normally wire whatever bait Im using to the trigger, so they really need to give it a "yank" which then springs the trap

Well it was designed with charlie in mind but got this maggie mate and the bait has been wired in every time the bugger must of just sat there chewing at it rather than giving it a yank but the maggie isnt what has been raiding the trap every outher night im sure it is a fox,cat or was wondering if it could be a stoat because I saw two on the land yesterday this is my first crack at traping(apart from rats with my monarch) and making my own trap so im just made up ive caught in it.

we caught a maggie in ours too, Im a night worker, so sleep mornings, my missus rushed upstairs and thrust this maggie in my face shouting look what we caught, I told her politly to go away, so she dispatched it, good reason for marrying a yorkshire farmers daughter
