Snaring

[BS40liam 203]

Just received some snares last night and gonna go and set some later this evening, but when my old man taught me years ado he said to set it at 2 fingers above the ground and make the loop the same size as your fist! Now If I can remember correctly we didn't have much success doing this when we was younger only the odd one rabbit now and again so could someone shed some light as to if they think this way is correct or should I be doing something different? I don't want to go out and balls it up lol any advise appreciated atb

There is a great thread in the trapping section telling ypu how to do it, thats too low and tight,

 

Good luck
