Minnesota Brand MB-550-RC 2-Coiled Fox & Coyote Trap - The 550-RC has an outside jaw spread of 5 1/2" and an inside jaw spread of 4 3/4". The cast jaw face is 3/8" thick and the offset is 3/16". We've installed a Paws-I-Trip pan system and night latch dog. Pan tension out of the box (un-waxed) on the two coiled version runs an average of 2.1 pounds which we have found to be a very good number for a multi species trap. Pan tension on the four coiled model runs an average of 3.1 pounds. Tested extensively over a three year period on coyote, bobcat, red fox, grey fox, and raccoon. This trap is fast and excellent results were obtained using it two coiled. We do not recommend using the 4-coiled version if grey fox is your target animal. The 550 is an excellent live market trap as well as the trap to use on a mixed species line. Small enough for fox and tough enough for the nastiest coyote. If you are not planning on 4-coiling your MB-550-RC's we strongly recommend cutting the excess spring pins off leaving 1/2" protruding from the frame. This DVD covers all canines including Red Fox, Grey Fox and Coyote. This video is intended to show every facet of trapping canines efficiently in a down to earth manner. John invites you to join him on his trap line as he explains how to trap those elusive canines on this DVD. Additional footage of a release of an incidental caught bobcat and footage on how to remove fox glands by special guest John Crawford. Interesting segment on trapping canines east vs west learn the differences with John Chagnon from the western methods and John Crawford with the Eastern methods. Learn from Chagnons over 40 years a trapper and trapper supply dealer.
