breakaways


Recommended Posts

I'm looking into doing a bit of snareing for rabbits and was curios if anyone has had any problems with breakaway snares, i would far sooner use these because although non target animals are unlikley i'd sooner be safe than sorry they seem like they're the safeguard i'm looking for but is there a down side to them.

Also can you tell me who i can contact to buy them ( by phone cos i dont buy anything over the internet, tecnoligy scares me :icon_redface: )

thanks

there was 800 rabbits caught testing these breakaway rabbit snares , so the problems were solved, the main problem that you will encounter is buying them from some of the people who copy them and can,t make them properly to my specifications , its the same with my breakaway fox snare eyes , as the young lad says geordie or woodga makes them good. ive have personally seen some of these copy snares for sale , do you wonder why i get pi#ssed of at times . one guy even fitted the breakaway fox snare eyes on back to front ,

i can understand your frustration mate, especially if you came upwith the idea, copy cats are always a problem could the idea be patented? georgie sent me 3 trial snares in breakaway form and i have cuaght 2 on them so far but one got chewed through the other day so im down to 2, i only use them where i have seen the farm cats but saved my neck once so they are worth it (good invention ;) )

Thanks for the pointers, i ordered some from Trapworks, within a short time of making the post i recived a pm then rang them, they were very helpful and prompt and a pleasure to deal with, they came this morning and seem sound, ive set them up onto figure 4 tealers and got a couple out on a field at the back of my house and will set some more up tomorrow when i have a bit more time before work.
