Traps that “Catch, Hold and Hold-Up,” "They just work!"

Mike Matney-Washington Trapper-Inventor

I just spoke with Mike Matney yesterday evening.  Mike is from Washington State, maker and inventor of the floating repeater muskrat trap.  Mike heard we had custom made some 12x15x33 midsize beaver traps that weighed only 17.5 pounds.  Shorter than our standard beaver trap by 6 inches, but still a full 15 inches wide, Mike had us custom make him 5 of them, now his go to beaver trap.  He says he does not miss beaver and often catches them from 40 to 50 pounds with no problem, some larger yet.  Yesterday he had caught 4 for 5.

One small difference is that these traps have a setting “tab” at the top of the lock bar.  The tab does making setting much easier.  You place you thumb on the tab and start the lock bar.  With the tab, wide mouth, short body and light weight, this is the beaver trap Mike loves since he often traps our of a boat.
