Good tip. I just use the weighted one for distance. I like the tin and trailer tip, I have a Hogy like that but these are much cheaper.

Under what conditions do you like to fish the mouse traps?
@BillWetzel4 жыл бұрын
The mouse traps are for heavy deep water. I weight them with 8 oz of lead. No need for hooks. Makes catch and release very easy. I spray the trigger mechanism with WD40 to increase catch to drop ration.

Bill Wetzel that’s where I stuffed up! I only loaded mine up with 4 oz of lead!

Carry a tube of crazy glue if you don't want it to move. Dab on that shaft and slide it up. Never come off

This practice could weaken the hook. It might undo the metal's tempering/hardness. I dunno but just sayin.
