My buddy got a new set of jacks he got the red they are pretty nice easy to see. I went with the black flags big mistake. Can't see the black against the shoreline greenery. Ripping them off than going with Hunter orange.
Clamfarmer did you make that trap from the wood you found from Noah's Arc?
Hey Joe that looks like underlayment/pad for laminate flooring.
Heritagetraps.com has flags for sale also, Maine company. The only problem with the felt JT's use is when you are fishing in freezing rain they freeze to your trap and wont trip. I fish an old set of traps called Superiors and the flag material is more like a thin canvas and do not freeze up like felt. Not sure where you would find that type of material but highly suggest.
I obviously can't speak to your experience but I've fished Jacks for years and never had a flag freeze to my trap where it wouldn't trip in either snow, sleet and/or rain.If some are concerned about this, a quick fix could be to spray any felt flag with a repellent (Sof Sole, etc) and allow it to thoroughly dry prior to fishing. This should cause most precipitation to bead.
