Im making this thread to make you think. It does not have to be a big producer, just a set that does NOT involve holes of any sort. Mine would be the sandwitch set for mink. Whats yours?

The log over the creek crossover set,I don't know why but I've always loved to set those up. usually around here each end of the log has two distinct trails leaving it so there's at least four snares then usually put a couple footholds on the log itself. If critters are really movin you can really nailem' at those natural bridges. no bait or other attractors needed.

Whats a mock slide?

A sandwitch set, my friend, is a flat rock in shallow water. Then you put a fish or muskrat or whatever on the rock and top with another flat rock. Then you set 2 traps in the water on both sides. Cover the rock with something natural, make it look like its been through high water, and finish with a touch of lure.

I also enjoy a culvert set. This one is formed by wiring 2 1.5 to a cinder block and is placed in a flat bottomed culvert. Make the traps to where they are about an inch or so under water, then put lure on the concrete wall 1 foot above and in between the traps.
