My cable cutters

Dave, thir is significant use of snares, especially for coyote in the UP and northern Michigan. I used to routinely run into them, they actually put up signs stating that there was trapping and snaring going on in the are
a.

We have the same problem up here ,it infuriates me ,stupid lazy irresponsible way to collect animals, ive gotten dogs caught three times now ,but ive always carried proper cable cutters ...these people ,think they're woodsmen ,for the sake of a 25 dollar coyote pelt,they risk my investment of years and family friend, they don't even mark the area where they set them

Wow. Thanks again for the heads up. Especially to you, Harold, for explaining they use these snares in Northern Michigan. I have a pair of cable cutters ready to go in my vest!

Garry,
I am so very thankful that your experience had a positive outcome. I understand more than you know the terror you felt in the moment. Again, I am very thankful Rill is ok.

Guys ,my cutters fit easily in my vest and cut this shit like butter ,pm me and I'll put you on to them

I'd be interested in seeing what you use Chris, mine are quite functional but heavy

Garry,

Glad to hear everything worked out ok for Rill. I haven’t run into any traps on WIHAs in KS, but always worry about them.

Here's what I carry. Smaller, but it worked just fine. Elaine has one a bit larger, just in case.
