The credit for this goes out to martinsmodified (Chris), I seen his demo in Oswego & thats how I learn how to make this.... Double stake traps  Blend both traps with hay  Add a ball of hay in the middle  Finished set  I then add some urine on the sides of the hay facing the traps & a very small amount on the top. |

Tim try this for fun....
Put urine at 9 o'clock high and at 3 o'clock... put a lil gland lure at the base of the ball and make like a walkthrough effect ( not high) on both sides of the traps.
Good luck!
Stef

How do keep the hay from blowing away? It's not in the picture, but I use small sticks & shove the hay ball onto the sticks. It keeps the hay in place. The past 2 days have been VERY windy here & the hay never moved. Stef, I'll try it, but so far I'm 2 for 2 at 1 set. ;D |

I like my dogs on the inside at the stakes. so there isn't no chance of flipping a foot out of the trap with the dog. I see you put yours on the out side. I've had fired traps before and I blame it on that. I turnd the dogs in and have'nt had that happen anymore.

Good point Larry, I never thought about that. From now on, I'll turn the traps.

Not for me... I make like a walkthrough so the dogs are touching let say the "wall " of the walkthrough on both sides.

Hey Stef. Do you have a picture of your hay set? I'm confused about what is different with yours.

Somewhere..LoL but here's a little help. Its about the same as Tim but i believe that I have less misses using more guides. Also, i use it only in the winter the hay set "on top" on heavy snow with good results especially on foxes... Coyotes.... its a little hard but works well with them when the hay is completely covered of snow. I like #3 Coil spring trap for this kind of set Good luck and hope my little work below helps you understanding the hay set better ;D  |

I don't recall of hearing any talk about a hay set until a few years ago when Creekboy did a post about it and now everyone seems to be using the set.

hay ninny-
as long as they are catching them it just goes to show you can teach old dogs new tricks-
but stef's pics are exactly like creekboy makes them as i have run his line and seen with my own eyes -creekboy has been using this set for over a decade

one thing is a cinch, if anyone wants anything for themselves, they can`t make a video about it or post it on the internet.
