Wow! I'd pay 6 or 7 for the old round pans, no interest in the square pans. I must be out of touch with the market.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I had several doz. modified many years ago. Great little trap. Will hold anything that gets into it. I haven't used them for several years but I would want to sell on that high end of the pricing as Mike stated in his range.

These are what I was wondering about. Found some locally for sale. Good fox trap, will they work for coyotes?

Are they still being made?

NEtrapper they look good ...I did notice some" swing set" chain in there. Be sure to replace the thinner, weaker stuff. With these low fur prices I'd be conservative with prices.
If it doesn't work let them go...I'm sure you are like the rest of us....we already got too many traps....lol

I have never used those traps four coiled, have always used the two coiled- always had plenty with just the two. Never had issues with the stock chain. The swivels may need to be replaced, they get chewed up fairly easily on bigger coyotes. These are traps I sit intentionally for coyotes where fox may be present, I let a lot of fox go.

So I ended up getting a good deal on these. Do you modify the center chain locator? Don’t know I’d call it a baseplate? Planning on changing out the chain and debating on laminating them?

They have some new ones. They aren’t cheap
