Conibear 220, 280 and 330 Set with Basic Setters

I once forget my setters for my 330's and i was in the middle of nowere in the woods (about 3 miles from the truck) and i had to use my hands.... well lets just say, i only set 1 that day

i was setting a 220 today and i was hooking the key to the trigger and one of the hooks came off damn didnt that hurt... so now im using the tool to hold the corners together when i set the key

i have some of those setters but im having trouble setting #330 if i weld on some extensions will that make it easier...im 13 btw so dont get you should be able to set them..thats for everybody else..not you!
great video!

do any of u have a trap

I use them for fisher and coon. I have also used them for fox.

Whether using clamps or not - what happens if the safety latch on one or both main springs falls off or gets accidently knocked loose while compressing the square jaws/setting the catch and you have to let the square jaws go for whatever reason - would the main spring/s snap the trap shut? When squatting on a river bank in semi-darkness and freezing temperatures with mud all over your hands little hang-ups like this can happen easily.

I have had this happen. If one jay hook is still on the traps jaws will not shut. But, if both go off the traps jaws will set off completely. I usually only use that tool on 330 and bigger. I always set the key on the trigger by hand and keep the springs pointed down. This way the j safety hooks don't come off. And also another thing i do is set the traps before i go out. as long as the springs are set and the j safety hooks are on, the pressure will keep the hooks on making it more safe!

i got a question where do you buy the J thing you are talking about

the thing in your hands!
