Never lost one permanently. Now if you’d ask how many tools I’ve broken or worn out on the line, that’s a different story lol

9 mm wrench. I use it on my drags or wolf fangs. I use a 3/16 quick length so i can use both. I have like 4 of these wrenches. I loose them all the time. Find them latter on the road. At trap sets and so forth. Loose a few traps as well. Always get ask ?? How can you loose a trap??? Have 100 plus out or run traps 365 and stuff happens. No matter how good its marked

gloves and not just while trapping

needed some work gloves Friday found 5 lefts that looked almost new and 1 right with a hole

seems it's always the right

I lose a homemade (2nd) jaw safety catch for my Ram Snares and BG's about every year (that's why they are HOMEMADE you stupid mike!). Use the Pink duct tape wrap taught to me by a friend (Dan) in Minnesota,,,,, that helps but still drop/misplace one every year. ................the stupid mike

I don’t remember ever losing a tool forever, but have lost my ax several times by setting it on the bumper and it falling off, always was able to backtrack and find it, also my mink pocket digger but again always found it.

Lure bottle labels count? LOL

I have lost conibear 2 safeties along the way..fell in the water I guess...

Cable stake drivers. Two of them. I also lost a pick hammer. Used it making a set, took quad 100 yards, was gonna put in another set. Realized it was missing. Spent two hours going back and forth between sets, never did find it.

Body grip safety setters. Solution was to paint them bright orange.

For the most part,I paint all my trapping tools with bright orange.Sometimes I find the setters,occasionally they are never found.Probably beamed away by aliens.
I always carry two sets of 330 setters,Lots of times I leave one at a set after removing the catch and re making, Having a spare keeps me from back tracking in the middle of a line run.I will pick them up next run but sometimes they will be covered in snow and difficult to find unless I remember the specific set I left them at.

Yeah pretty sure I always find them on the next trip around I do remember loosing a j hook tool that I don't recall finding but 10 pairs of pliers season geez hope there from harbor freight or the flea market after reading some post I recall setting my 22 on my bumper driving off to the next set get there realize it rush back to find it on the middle of the road

Pliers and Axe heads in the bottom of beaver ponds. Actually haven't lost either in several years, but I used to be good for dropping a pair of pliers in the drink every year. I always used the cheap dollar pliers to cut and twist wire. And at least twice I can recall being partway through pounding a stake in and having the handle break and watching the Axe head twirl out into the middle of the pond. Otherwise I don't think I've lost anything permanent. Now having to scratch my head and look around for a while, try and figure out where I last used the whatever? Yeah that's been known to happen.

I lost a couple ice spuds years ago when they slip out of your fatigued hands and into the loon poop at the bottom of the pond under the ice.
Then I started putting a wrist loop on them and thought it was good,I would never lose an ice spud again-wrong-lost a couple when I left the handle loop sticking out the side of the sleigh,only to get caught up in trail brush and whipped under the snow somewhere never to be seen again,lol.

See? This is why you can't have nice things.

Yes definitely a conspiracy.

Here you will lose everything biggest bunch of thief's trap here .Game wardens refer you to sheriff and they dont give a hoot

I don’t really loose them. I like to leave them on my trap so I know where they are. Actually I’m bad for leaving the trap safeties on…haha.
I’ve bought a bunch of these. Leave em in every vehicle I drive, trap bag, sleigh, trap tool box, trap pail, and one that I keep in the pocket. I found this type to be the most user friendly.

My manager gave me a site safety visit. He was questioning some stuff I had in the back seat of the truck. Told him “ you just never know when you’ll need 330 setters n stuff”. He just gave me a puzzled look….lol. As long as I’m on standby after hours, I can take my work truck anywhere in the area I cover.

This one somehow managed to get the bent part of the stand buried to the hilt in his “dirt chute”
