trapline traps

[moley 115]

anyone using the trapline/steve albano type mole traps, i have used them in my garden quite a bit and am warming to them, i don,t think i will ever be able to set one as quickly as a half barrel , but at the moment i,m pretty impressed, any thoughts ?

i tried one or two and i liked them but i dont like the fact you need 2 for each setting, i also found them a bit wide sometimes,,, the good thing is i cant imagine a mole pulling out of the trap once sprung..

I have over 40 and think they are the mutts nuts they are quick and easy to use and very discreet.

i have a few,i find the triggers quite hard so they need a bit of tuning,i did catch one mole by placing it in a molehill,it was just an experiment as the ground was too hard to probe,but it worked a treat.I still prefer the half barrel traps for success.

I have some & use them if a mole run is up the edge of a garden path or round patio slabs etc. and there's not enough room for a 1/2 barrel trap. Also put them in if the run probed turns out to be a 3 way junction. They need bedding in a bit but I find them very effective for those runs where I can't set the usual 1/2 barrel type.

Not loaded jobs are priced accordingly, and I find I have yet to miss with these traps,all bought from Kilgerm geniune trapline.

I have duffus and talpex and used both successfully for many a Year.But were I trap,i.e badgers foxes general public,My trap losses are negligble in comparrison to others,and I can carry double the ammount of these than any other.

As has been said -very useful to compliment a Talpex or barrel trap if you break into a three way tunnel.One of the few traps that actually contract when sprung so they don't need any headroom around them and are thus great for tight spots. I would'nt feel under-equipped without them but they are useful little tool in the armoury.

It's definitely an uphill battle to sell a new type of mole trap to experienced mole trappers. Moley, thanks for the post and glad to hear you are catching moles with our Trapline traps.

 

I do think even experienced trappers will find our traps useful in some soil conditions, such as very wet, muddy soil. And also in conditions where rocks or other obstacles make placement of other trap types more difficult.

 

We have some really crap mole traps here on the US market, and they're pretty easy to out compete. But the half barrels and the Talpex style traps are pretty good traps in the hands of an experienced user.
