Above trap of the week is a 6 inch model of the Charlie Olds of Prince George BC. Charlie made three different sizes of this trap , pictured is the six inch the next is the seven and 10 inch . They were produced by himself all by hand the purpose was to trap crows raven and owls .The trap was a clap bow type , one would open the jaws and a device at the end of the jaws would hold the jaws open , a bird would then land on the wooden trigger and get caught A very few were made and are a very collectible Canadian made trap! Thanks again to H380 for his help ! .
