So who all's traps end up in a giant tangled mess at the end of the season? Just me? You would think that I would have learned by now.

Unless you are using drags and long chains I don't even want to here about it.

They simplify things on the line but if ya let then roll around in back of the truck for a day or 3 it is far from simple LOL

Just leave a half open J hook on the end of the chains for a real treat.

Embrace the treat. It’s like a puzzle, that nobody wants to deal with. But it keeps the mind sharp, lol.
