new to the flock Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 place your trap about 1/2 way into the tunnel and place your bait behind that. A bit of fresh rabbit or fish works well. You can also build what is know as a dryland blind set. find an area that is well used build your tunnel uver the trail leaving it open at both place your trap in the middle of the tunnel. I will scan some info for you and post it in the pic section. The traps in the tunnels will be victor 1 or 1 1/2 long springs set for drowning, just replace these with a fen trap. The dry land sets are down with conibear 110 and 120 traps. The 110 and the 116 conibear were cleared for use on mink, stouts, (116) rabbit, and weasels in 1995 for the UK. Hope this helps.
