Anybody use any of these yet?



Sleepy Creek #2 and a Bridger #11 with Wild River Traps expanded pans

Nope, make my own , the 2 looks good although.

These are easy to install and only cost $20 for a dozen.

Looks like a plus.thanks

Think a coon would tear them up ?

No mikes pans are made stout and thick i have several on 1.5 coils for mink rats and coon and have caught fox in them and they are as straight as when they were put on you can get single or double posts

These pans are thick, no junk. I would think it would take something like a wolf or wolverine to damage them.

Does anyone have pics of the barker mink pans ?

I always felt that DBLs were way to slow for use on dry ground. And were a real pain when digging trap beds In frozen ground.
There Is a reason why coil spring traps have In most cases phased them out.

I do like them In the water for coon.

The tests that I've seen as far as speed of the trap closing the dls is only milliseconds slower than the coils. Also I would imagine if they were WAY slower than coils there would be many, many trappers complaining about misses and I don't see that.

I have them on some Sleepy Creek #11 double jaws and they work great. I used them at pocket sets and caught lots of rats and coons in them last year.

Sounds good. I'm plan on using some on my SC #2's for fox also.

I always felt that DBLs were way to slow for use on dry ground.----Like grey55 said, just not as much difference as most think.

And were a real pain when digging trap beds In frozen ground.----IMO if you can dig a bed for a coil spring trap, you can dig one for a DLS. I don't go through all the bull crap, some do, to keep their coil spring traps from freezing down.

THANK YOU for posting this. I have the Wild River pans on my #11s, I also have a couple dozen #2 SC I hope to use for fox. Guess I need to go ahead and order some more pans.

I'm looking forward to good things happening with these SC #2's. Also have #2 Victor dls looking forward to putting in the ground this year.

I found a few doz #3 blake and lamb in a drum in my shed gonna give 'em a try in a few weeks!!

Have any of you guys replaced the jaws in a vic #4 dbl with sleepy creek jaws?

Yote I went and measured a victor it is 6 3/8
Sleepy creek is 6 1/16
Both inside to inside jaw post measurement
My only concern would be is there enough room at the dog area as sleepy ck has taller jaw than does a victor.
But to answer the question I have not .
