Default Coyote Footholds

Well coyotes sold well in the first auction. I'm still building my trapping arsenal and I plan on reinvesting most profit.

I'm thinking I will purchase a couple dozen footholds. The canadian modified bridger number 3 is an obvious choice but I was wondering what you guys considered to be the best choice for trapping in snow conditions?

The Americans seem to love those MB 650's. I think these meet our current regulations (I will double check before purchasing or setting). I don't want to be left holding traps that don't meet the Aihts agreement when that comes into effect which the MB's currently do not meet. I'm not sure if they have been tested and failed or if they have any plans of testing them.

You can buy the MB650 all you want knowing that even if it does not pass in Canada, there would be many buyers for a used MB south of the border. I would suggest the cast jaw model.
