I nite latch for two reasons. One is to hear the click when the pan is level, great for low or no light conditions. Two, is to have the trap fire with no perceptible movement. To do that, make the notch just deep enough to catch the dog but be right on the edge. Thanks for all your videos, I have learned something from each and every one.

Flat files are measured by length and not thickness. An 8 inch will be the closest to 5/32. A 10 inch is close to 3/16. I used an 8 inch on my #2 and #3 Dukes. The only difference it made was the "click" on the #3 traps was not as loud. We're working on traps not jet engines so the tolerances are slightly more flexible.
@davetoms63

@@53kills file length has zero to do with the thickness of file - each manufacturer/file can be different as far as depth of file. In the video he is talking 1/32 of an inch - that's a pretty tight tolerance and the idea I believe he was stressing was to lay the file flat on the stock and the file difference would make up the gap difference between the different sized traps.
@53kills
2 жыл бұрын
Like the guy in the video said it's not rocket science. You are correct. The length of a flat file is irrelevant to the thickness. That's because thickness is irrelevant to a flat file's intended use. You're not going to Lowe's, Tractor Supply.etc, and find a 5/32 or a 3/16 inch flat file. However you will find an 8 inch or 10 inch file. A 8 inch file will work fine for a #2 trap. An 10 inch will work for #3. The guy is working on traps, not a complex device requiring precision tolerances. Just file a notch in the pan. As he said, it's quite simple.

Dumb question if I may? Where do you put your "ID Tags?" I am very new to trapping and on Game Land you must have an ID tag on all your traps. On cages, it is no problem but on the foot holds, Body Grips, and DP's what is the best location, & what do you use to attach your ID tags? Your videos on trapping are some of the best on KZread. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. Peace PS: I used pop rivets for the cages
@andrewbower9128 жыл бұрын
do you do anything to make that trap trip with basically.no pan creep? or was that trap done once you turned off the camera? I ask because the key when bedding a trap is to make sure it is solid and does not move when he animals steps. now when it steps on the pan and it creeps slightly and doesn't go off wouldn't that be the same as a wobbly trap? I like everyone try to make a set that when they animal steps on that pan it is committed but just something I've been pondering while tuning my traps this weekend.

nice informative video...thanks
Dumb question if I may? Where do you put your "ID Tags?" I am very new to trapping and on Game Land you must have an ID tag on all your traps. On cages, it is no problem but on the foot holds, Body Grips, and DP's what is the best location, & what do you use to attach your ID tags? Your videos on trapping are some of the best on KZread. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. Peace PS: I used pop rivets for the cages
do you do anything to make that trap trip with basically.no pan creep? or was that trap done once you turned off the camera? I ask because the key when bedding a trap is to make sure it is solid and does not move when he animals steps. now when it steps on the pan and it creeps slightly and doesn't go off wouldn't that be the same as a wobbly trap? I like everyone try to make a set that when they animal steps on that pan it is committed but just something I've been pondering while tuning my traps this weekend.
Good video!
Enjoyed txs. Suggest you boil n wax those traps before any more rust
Hey great video. Do you change out your brass screws and drill it out with a #14 bit. I've seen trapping supply catalogs sell replacement screws and the drill bit. What is the reasoning behind that? Is it worth doing? Thanks
Well explained!
hey man love your videos i was wondering are you going to do any trapping videos this season?
Do you adjust the pan tension on your Duke 550s or keep them the way they are when you buy them?
Only video on here worth a damn

Shayna Martin Isn't unusual for a make up artist to watch trapping vids? 🤔🤔🤔😉
Do you also file the wax off the trigger and pan after waxing?
How do you like those duke #3’s?
night latching is the simplest way of tuning a trap hands down
That was perfect 👌 thank you for this video very helpful
perfect I fixed my cheap crappy Duke number 3's....Caught 2 song dogs and 3 reds so far after night latching !!!
Im still wondering why they dont do this stuff from the factory by now.
Very inspiring I've been having problems with lieing my pan and firing the trap but thanks to u man I'm gonna have an easy process with the pan thanks somuch great video

Great video Stu. Question though, bending the dog support forward with pliers, would that not level off the pan w/o having to night latch? Exactly what is the purpose of the night latch?

The night latch is so there is an audible click when the pan is level, so you can set them by ear/feel in the dark
will this also work on 1 1/2 long springs
Who says you can't teach a old dog new tricks thanks for the info
Thanks for the "How To" vid. One item, the #3 is too small for beaver unless you are only targeting a front foot catch. Keep up the good work.
What would you call a type like that? 1st time trapper i have traps like that.
Could you remake this video with your new camera equipment my eyes ain't what they used to be and does this need to be done to them all DUKE Bridger and so forth ?
Cool traps
What weight do you set the pan for coyote ? 2 or 3 lbs
what size would u recommend for coyotes
now thats what i call instructional. thanks

Good job on the vid. Is Duke your primary trap?

BravoDelta1018 Yes. Duke makes a great trap imo. Sometimes a little tinkering is involved. But you will have that with almost any trap.
What is the purpose of the nightlatch, could you have just adjusted your dog with your pliers from the beginning to have the same effect or no?
Bacon grease, to lube the metal and hide any odors; Like the "hair pin triggers" Thanks good info...
Please forgive my novice ignorance, but what exactly is the purpose of nite latching traps? Is it just a hair-trigger set? Help!
Would a 200mm file work for night latching duke 1 3/4
Thanks man!
Awesome hack thank you
So the point of night latching....Just set it quick and be done? I have been trapping for years and when I wax the traps that I bought that came latched are hard to set compared to the others. Way to touchy...What am I doing wrong?

Need to get the wax off the night latch notch and the dog.
very good
Awesome 🤙🤙🤙
Do you dye or wax your traps
Great video, not enough how to video's on trapping available, mostly catch video's.
Will those files work for a bridger trap ?
Thanks!!!
Does the length of the file have anything to do with the thickness? I'm having trouble finding a file that works.
