I believe the snare is 1/16, I always seem to get all my fractions mixed up
, but it's the thin fine stuff that Marty Senneker uses. I boil my snares first in water and baking soda, and then place them in Formula 1 dye.
The coyotes are just on to me in this area as I've caught 4 there already. However, I did hang a few in some long grass in the area, I hope to trick this big old wily male yet!
