Do they have any advantages over ordinary scissor traps? their ok....but i dont realy like scissor traps and normal scissor traps are as much use at tits on a fish!... my main use for fens are in roots or even better when setting under squashed down stock netting as i find a lot of moles in this kind of place...also realy realy small runs like the ones that you have to apply lube to get 2 fingers in (ohh matron!) but other than that i done use them...... 1 Quote Link to post
