jump traps
« on: October 04, 2005, 11:00:51 AM »
I've got a few #1 victor jumps coming and they are in great condition I plan to use them for rats but will they hold a coon as well because I have been told to stay away from #1 traps when trapping for coon
total for this year so far
3 grinners
2 coyotes
4 coons and
1 skunk

 so far :grin:
