My dad hasn't trapped for about 25 years... Finally got him interested in running a mink line. Put out a dozen bottom edge sets 3 days ago and picked up a mink last night.. He's hooked.. lol.. Not a 110 around that isn't in the back of his truck for tomorrow's bridge to bridge cruise..
I've never used the bottom edge set. I figured it'd be the best way to go for him since his back is no good and setting the bridges mean little walking.. After seeing him make a catch in 2 nights I'm gonna be keeping an eye out for more bottom edge locations..
I set him up with a bunch of ready to go coni holders. Flat stones with about a 1 inch piece of metal strapping bolted to it (the kind that they bundle lumber with) and the traps wired to the stone through another hole...
I like the setup. Very convenient. Easier than leaning bricks (especially if the bottom is mud).. But if anybody has come up with a better or quicker way to quick setup a 110 for a bottom edge set then I'd appreciate any advice..
