I do my trapping back in NY.
Our regs concerning body grips on land and in conjunction to baited cubbys gives us a few options.
I am looking at using 10" irrigation pipe (lightweight thin wall pvc) for my cubbys. I can either close the 10" opening down to 6" and only have to set my trap 4" back from the entrance, or I can keep it at it's full 10" but must then recess my trap (160/220) back an intire 18" from the entrance.
I know that there is a higher percentage of refusals with the little 6" entrance over the 10" entrance, but I don't know how well they will commit to going the extra 18" in order to fire the trap in the set having the full 10" entrance.
How would you set up.?
