- How you anchor you traps is probably the most critical part of your trapline. The last thing you want to do is run the risk of losing one of your traps because it isn't anchored solid. I'm a big fan of cable stakes, but there are plenty of folks that use rebar, so here's some tips if you're thinking about using rebar.

I always use cross stake my coyote sets. I use rebar and regular stake. I make my own. As for remove the stakes , I hit them with the hammer to loose them and then pull them out. It works for me .
Good tips. I prefer cross staking with rebar, I connect my tap chain to the cross stake swivel with a quick connect link. That way I can pull my trap and leave the stakes behind short term say due to freezing or foul weather.
I like the quick connect link, that's a good idea. I don't have to deal with freezing ground, and I'm sure thankful for that!
Most definitely is brother very helpful. 👍
The s hook that comes with the cross stake swivel how can you open and close it the s hook?
This HD J Hook tool (www.minntrapprod.com/HD-J-Hook-Tool/productinfo/HDJ-TOOL/) is the easiest way I've found to open S and J hooks. Its pricier but in my opinion well worth it
What diameter is rebar steak

Coyote Trapping School thank you
what state do you trap in?
tucker burkhalter Georgia. You?
I'm in Alabama and I'm going to try it this year been watching your videos trying to learn
Also do you sell your fur?
Yes, I ship my fur to North American Fur Auctions. They have a rep in your state that will pick up fur and there may be a local fur buyer as well. The benefit of local buyers is they will buy "green" hides, that aren't fleshed or dried, just frozen. Of course these don't bring as much but for alot of trappers they're willing to take the cheaper prices for putting in less work
Ok did you just get on the fur auctions website to get in touch with someone if I caught enough to pick up?
i have always used rebar and i have never had a problem with it not holding.
Rebar is reliable, its just bulky and heavy
