If you can’t find one let me know. I have 3 of them and love them but I would be willing to share.
I have nothing clever to put here.

I bought one from him about 5 years ago at one of the conventions. Best setter I've ever used.
Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

Lepus, you are looking for a MJ Setter made by Maynard J. from around the Carlton area. I can't spell his last name, dang finnlanders lol. Maynard was at the summer MTA convention this year but I don't believe he was tailgating.

I don't know his name. The setters you are looking for looks like the GEM setter. But, instead of pulling, you push down after you hook the eyes on a side. That's how mine works, push not pull.

I did some more research, it's Maynard Jokinen, and I was thinking Carlton but it's Cloquet. He probably still has some setters if you can find his number.

Steven is correct, it is Maynard Jokinen of Cloquet who you would have bought them from. Love my Maynard setter! I PM'd you with the # I found, but can't guarantee it's correct and/or still valid. Happy trapping! ScottW

Since it is a PUSH type setter, if you are unfortunate enough to get caught in a bodygrip trap, it's much easier to free yourself than it would be if you had to PULL to hook the springs.
