How do you all attach your trap tags. I have some small copper tags with a single hole. I like how some of you guys have em roled up, how do you do that? or is the best way to just wire them on?

thanks

just wrap them around the chain

I roll mine as well. Basically, place the end of the tag with the empty space, letters facing you, on the chain then just roll tag around the chain link.

i use small hog rings works for me

Hog rings here too......

Rolled on last swivel has worked for 2 years now.

I have been stamping my own tags with a stamping kit from harbor frieght and some 1/2" wide X 1/4" thick aluminum flatstock cut it to length with bolt cutters, drill one hole in it, and wire it to the chain at the last swivel.

I just wrap them around a chain link. Check them every year to make sure they are still well attatched.

I also use hog rings, never had one come off yet.

I hate hog rings.... Just do!

I use a piece of #17 black steel wire, bent in a "U" which goes around a link of the trap chain and the trap tag is put on the wire.

Put about three twists in each one, holding the anchored-end with a pair of needle-nose pliers. Clip off the excess wire.

Then wrap the tag around the chain & wire, with the ID facing outward.

Coyotes and Coons chew on them but seldom ever get them off completely.

It Works for Me!
