Thanks for all the help so far guys rob If your talking about rabbit snares, then the ones you buy in shops are loosely spun, shorter with a twine attached... The ones glenn, woodga make, etc have no twine are tighter spun and use an eyelet... Personally I'd avoid the ones bought from shops, if you want any fence snares speak to woodga off the site, far better Quote Link to post

Thanks for all the help so far guys rob If you use the pro ones on the wire tealer set at 61/2" and follow the advice given by the experts on this site, you'll catch more, and become so confident, that you'll feel miffed if you get a knocked snare. On the metal tealer, the snare can spin like a swivel so they last longer too. Well worth the little bit extra. You won't go back to shop bought. Quote Link to post
ellir0305 9 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Cheers guys i should have some samples coming soon really looking forward to it Tight wires rob Quote Link to post
paddy.t 5 Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 To be honest mate, it would be worth the extra few quid for pro ones, bigger loops. PM geordie, ive had some from him and they a sound, catch no problems But your skills are down to catch rate too Good luck Quote Link to post

You won't go back to shop bought. shop bought snares are usually sold under the guise of professional rabbit snares , they are sold by salesmen who talk the talk, but can,t walk the walk not real trappers, like the few real snarers on this site thats snared over a thousand in a week. the shop bought wires are lacking in length, half spun, some don,t even have an eyelet inserted into them , they are crap with thin cheap twines on them, real pro. trappers don,t use twines on their snares and as i have said before the biggest thing shop snares catch most is the people who are gulled into buying them , and they cost between 4o to 50 pence each, you can buy pro, nooses or tealers from either woodga or geordie on this site for 30 odd. pence each , either 22 1/2 inches or24 inches long, these guys sell the cheapest real mcoy professional rabbit snares on this site , and are pro,s at using them . infact if you want good cheap rat snares , geordie will make them for you also, as he made me a lot of the single strand ruby rat snares , for me and i have snared up to ten rats with one snare. remember a snare is only as good as the guy who sets it .
