Don't know what they cost but a neater and cheaper  version  would be a Body Grip in a Cubby

They are for the average person with little trapping experience mickey, buy it-set it-catch it sort of thing, like this...

Glenn Waters actually makes something similar which looks a lot better, he should do a trapping book to complement his snaring ones.

The body grip in a tunnel and the  Quell are completely different traps. They can't  be  considered versions of the same thing. 

I've a little unbranded ,probably Oriental  , copy of Mackem's Quell.  It  is a very simple one piece unit . It would be easy to make  DIY versions in various sizes.   It's  basically the same principle as most box and cage traps but with a very strong spring and a falling bar instead of a door.

Any chance of a photo mate if you have the opportunity to grab one?

Thats the one, never used it as they are not certified, what do you think of those sail shops, not as good as Bass Pro

I like Sail to be honest, it's 10 minutes away and stocks everything and anything to do with the outdoors, Cabela's is local also, far bigger stock but more specialised

My kid recently moved near to Tampa florida and has a huge bass pro on his doorstep. 

I am on the edge of Ottawa.
