Congrats on the gulos. Where 'bouts are you trapping? I use a lot of #3 Bridgers for cats, I use the fully modified ones. I held a wolf in one of them this year. I have a few of the NO BS traps, they are tanks for sure. I got 12 wolves this year, most of them in #9s . Check out my pics here. https://trapperman.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/7111800/update-on-the-line

Always dreamed of Alaska as a kid but had to settle for freezing my butt off in NE MT. I remember finding some less expensive traps in a catalog one day and pointing them out to my dad (oldesttrapper) to which he replied: "Only rich trappers can afford cheap traps." Thanks for a great thread.

I have some K9 extremes a d have been very impressed with the quality! I also like sleepy creek traps, but I think they are out of production at the moment. Dukes will do the job, just as others have said you may need to modify them for larger animals.

T-IanMan the guy that makes the #9's bought the company and then got cancer. He's back at it at though. JR is a badass dude, I bought a really white wolf back in the day from him. Its a beauty and huge.
Ever see 2 wolves get got in one #9? It happened.... .

Kendall sure does make a good trap. I use the k9 extreme, the jr. and the 1.5 of his.
I spend all my money on loose women and trapping supplies.....The rest I just waste.
