Course illegal in some states, but in a SHTf scenario knowledge worth knowing. Of course the weathers not this nice yet, I took these pics last year. This set up is easy to build and you can usally find fishing line around any fishing site either in trees or river banks.   |

Primitive yo-yo technique.  You are so right about finding fishing line and other items at fishing spots. It's a total shame.  |

That's pretty sweet, Graf! Can you give a tad more detail, though? I've gone back and forth between the two photos and I can't tell how you "set the trap." The carved notch at the bottom of the spool must be hooked under some sort of anchor, but I can't see it in the first photo. How "sensitive" do you make the trigger when you set it?

I use whats called a L/7 trigger, one part is driven into the ground the other is attached to the limb and fishing line, see attached photo of a different trap but easier to see the trigger look towards the left side of the photo along the line, Nice thing about the L/7 trigger you can round edges or shave more off to increase or decrease sensivity.   |

you can use the same trigger rig for snares as well, or use the snare triggers for fish.

In Australia we just use what's known as a springer, though illegal most everywhere here. They're a simple fiberglass pole often disguised with line and bait attached.
