Description
Duke #155 Body Grip Trap
The Duke #155 Body Grip Trap is the professional’s choice for a compact yet powerful double-spring trap. Specifically designed with a 5" x 5" jaw spread, it bridges the gap between the smaller #110 and the larger #160, offering increased striking power while remaining small enough to fit into tight runs and specialized enclosures.
The #155 is highly regarded for its versatility, making it a "must-have" for harvesting raccoon, fisher, and pine marten, while remaining a heavy-duty option for muskrat and oversized squirrels.
Key Features
-
Double-Spring Power: Unlike smaller single-spring models, the #155 features two high-tension springs, providing a lightning-fast firing speed and incredible holding pressure for a quick, ethical harvest.
-
Optimal 5" x 5" Jaw Spread: The perfect size for mid-sized furbearers. It is large enough to ensure a solid strike but compact enough to be used in "dog-proof" box sets or narrow trail sets.
-
Rugged Steel Build: Constructed with Duke’s field-proven steel components, designed to withstand the rigors of underwater sets and frozen conditions.
-
Precision Trigger System: The sensitive four-way trigger allows for custom baiting and placement, ensuring the trap fires only when the target animal is perfectly positioned.
Why Choose the Duke #155?
-
The Raccoon Specialist: The #155 is a favorite for trappers targeting raccoons in "bucket sets" or tight trail pinches where a larger trap might be too cumbersome.
-
Superior Stability: The double-spring design provides more balance and weight, helping the trap stay positioned exactly where you set it, even in moving water or high-wind areas.
-
Multi-Species Versatility: It’s the "utility player" of the body-grip world—strong enough for larger predators like fisher, yet precise enough for muskrat.
