Have a neighbor that has lost a couple of sheep in the last week or so and our season does not come it until the 1st of Nov. so I got a permit and set some traps. We relocated the sheep but left the carcass of one of the kills to keep them coming. I have caught 2 young males so far, one the 1st night in a blind trail set and one the 3rd night just inside the pasture near a crawl under. I staked down a section of a deer front leg with a dab of Wayne Derrick's 1080 on it and bedded a trap on both sides of it. I do not usually make a double set unless I am trying to cuff a digger but in this situation, I wanted to make the initial catch whichever side it was approached. Not a lot of catch circle when you pin down both ends.

Blind set catch.
