THE SHELF SET

i use this set a lot where i know the water level will change...i start by driving a stake into the bank and then reaming out a hole for the bait, next i carve in a path (left) that goes from the bank to where the trap is...i put the trap dog facing the hole at the end of the trail with a stick by the loose jaw as a guide...then i stuffed bait in the hole and squirted fish oil in the hole so it drips out and hits the water creating the filmy
cover across the water.

this pic just shows trap placement in better detail
note the marshmallows again
