Title: Dog proof traps
Post by: foxtrot on July 29, 2010, 08:32:58 PM

 I am thinking of buying some dog proof traps for coon trapping this fall and was wondering if anyone has experience with them. The choices are coon cuff,Duffers,egg trap,and little grizz.

I ordered a couple for Forrest this year, we have not used them yet but I ordered the Coon Dagger and Duffers, after looking at them and playing around with them i like the Coon Dagger over the Duffers, it is a push/pull and if seems like the Duffers will be harder to stake.

The dagger is a new style I wasn't aware of but seems like a pretty good set up.Thanks!

Correct me if I am wrong?  Did I not see once they suggest that using a uncooked cracked egg for coon..Let it slide down on the bottom of a tree (right above the trap) as a good bait for everything wild but not not domestic dogs?

However Johnny......Cash sang that song....."That Dirty Ole Egg Sucking Dog!"   Someone is lying to me here?
