2poor
Drowning rods don't let the critter get to the bank and mill around, it keeps it in the deep water

Traprjohn, 2poor is well aware of that fact.
Hes saying that clint used to long chain beaver on footholds on land, but has switched to the carbon drowning rods.

Where as 2poor has always used drowning rigs.

The MB 750's and the CDR's are both awesome traps.

Well, kind of a fan of Locklier, like myself, though not putting myself in his league, he adapts and learns as he goes with different techniques and gear, he used the long chains without fear in conditions where a drowning rig was not possible. He also used drowning rods and weights on some of his long chains. I use some similar methods in different situations and have no problems.

Reg jaws for me tryed the lamanated and it was pull out's galore. even with the #5 coil i squared the jaw face it seamed to be too rounded for them big feet to stay put.


I dont suffer from Insanity i enjoy every minute of it.
