A Gift for Trappers That They Will Actually Use

This simple tool is changing how trappers handle non-targets…

Looking for a gift that’s actually useful to the trappers in your life? This trap release pole is a must-have for trappers who value safety, speed, and simplicity in the field.

The Coyote Release Pole works with #1½ to #4 coil spring and double long spring traps, weighs about 10½ pounds, and breaks down from 6 feet to 3 feet for easy transport.

For larger animals, the Wolf Release Pole handles #1½ and larger coil and long spring traps—including the MB750—and weighs around 14 pounds, also breaking down for convenient storage.

Both options make releasing non-target catches quicker, safer, and far less stressful for everyone involved—no waiting around for help is required.
