Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Trapping Catch poles

Ok, I don’t want to hear about homemade ones. What is your experience with Tomahawk brand and Ketch-All? What lengths you using?

Been wanting one for a while, but I haven't
had the extra funds
The Ketch-All is supposed to be the best.
That's what the local animal control dept.
has. I didn't say that that's what they use
because they don't do much of anything.
The veterinarians I've used had the Ketch-All.

Been wanting one of those Leggett trapper
pole animal holders that you pin the animal's
head down with. Looks pretty stout and
I don't think I'd be skeerd using that to
release an unruly animal.
I've seen some contraptions made with PVC
plastic pipe. No thank you

I just used the Duke catcher pole yesterday on a good sized badger, if I was better at photo posting I'd post some pics of the release.

ketch all I had a 4 ft unit that got lost this season aka my partner left it on the bumper needless to say its gone I plan on getting a 6ft ketch all this year at a convention
ive had the previous ketch all for over 10 yrs and zero complaints on it

What kind of a rodeo was that? I can’t imagine putting a catch pole on a badger and getting the trap off single handed.
I’ve caught one by a back leg once and he was hanging head first in the hole he dug.
