How do i make a snare trap? and wat supplies would i need?

Snares in wi. need to be underwater. A cable restraint is what we use for land animals.That way we dont kill any ones dog.

underwater?
im not trying to catch fish

lol....i was thinkin the same thing!

i know i dont see many rabbits swiming but maybe they swim in their free time.......LOL

i know how to make snares now nut where do i set them and how do i set them??

for snowshoes just get some 20 gauge wire and set it on a heavily used trail where the bush is tight and the animal is funnelled into the snare. you can alsotake sticks and stick them into the snow to make a funnel. All you have to do is attatch the end of the wire to a big stick or a stake in the ground and put the snare part approximately a hand above the ground. check the snare everyday, so a yote doesn't rip you off and wire cutters might be needed if a rabbit runs the wire around a tree a few dozen times. If you can find where the snow is packed with rabbit tracks you should have one in a day or two. Ihaven't done it a lot, but iv'e got a few snowshoes before.

thanks man appreciate it:D

I would recommend you just buy them. They aren't very expensive, I just picked up a dozen coyote snares at a gun show for $16. Unless you are going to be making large numbers it is way cheaper and easier to buy them.

Google The Snare Shop, that is where I order mine from, they have good prices and they are very helpful if you call them with questions. They will send you a catalog and there are snaring tips in the catalog, how to set them, where to set them, loop size etc. Good outfit to do business with.

I like the Amberg style lock for coyote. This is a KILLING lock and it works. If you have pets in the area look at some of the relaxing locks, washer lock for example. If you get a dog by accident all you have to do is let him go with a relaxing lock. Coyotes will chew the cable off a good portion of the time with the relaxing locks however, that is why I don't like them. They are good around pets though.
