mole trapper 1,693 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 I don't use a tealer at all, the nail serves as a trigger and tealer in one......Are you able to pop up a close up pic of that set up please jd? Sounds a better/simpler set up than what I'm doing.Cheers, Jamie. 1 Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Here ya go buddy..... I've not seen this set-up before (though I will stand corrected), it's one I thought up myself. I have actually moved on from this prototype now, to a simpler one, but I can't find a pic of it....... The snare is not the correct height in this pic...though... Hope you find it useful. 6 Quote Link to post
mole trapper 1,693 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Blimey that's a posh job mate! Makes mine look proper off the moor! Lol. How tricky is that to set? Quote Link to post
J Darcy 5,871 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Easy. Piece of pi$$ to set mate. I have actually simplified it now so I don't need to bend a nail. Also have another idea for the next tweek I'm going to do..... It's all going onto the little dvd I'm making. I have three actual catches filmed already, but it took me 5 weeks and God knows how many £ worth of batteries to get the first one. it's a bit difficult! Quote Link to post

From the little snippets you've shared with us, looks the making of an excellent watch! Think its something different, showing so many methods of trapping, with different traps and different target species! Quote Link to post

I think it's going to be a while yet as I want more footage of rats and a few of the mustalids. I have dozens and dozens of squirrel catches but they would be boring if thats all there was on it. I am trying to get the end result about an hour long and, if it goes ok and I break even, to make another one the following year. But it's all if's and but's ...so we will see...Got a line of Imbra's to put out shortly, as soon as I finish with the rats I'm going to have four trail cams on the rabbit traps then....it takes alot of effort, to get what I want...but we will see. let's hope I get the footage I want.... 2 Quote Link to post
torchey 1,328 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Lot of satisfaction snaring rats got some half tidy footage somewhere. Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 I've just watched some footage I had of Glenn & Phil whip snaring rats a good few year back and squirrel snaring, entertaining. Quote Link to post
