No idea how long they take from direct order, but I know it’ll be worth whatever wait when you get them. You’re going to be pleased.

Once again, I agree with Mr. Harry.
A few years ago, pretty much by chance, I stopped in at their shop with a friend.
Talked to Mr. Jack Trap. Nice guy with a lot of fishing experience.
They had more inventory on hand than I expected, they might. That said, they have a whole lot of options available to be purchased!
It's prime time for selling traps, Wayne. They don't have a huuuge shop or staff for building. I wouldn't speculate one way or the other how fast you're traps will come, but you probably won't ever have to replace them.

I Also agree...the 1 I have I use all the time,  I’ve been dragging my feet on replacing my old 40 ups and was considering taking the ride to their shop...I stopped in years ago when I fished up in the Belgrade area , I should have replaced them at that time
I just want to go ice fishing and ignore my adult problems

Mine took about a week... came in a couple days ago. I'm really surprised with the quality... people said they were good but wow, they border on being art work... super happy, can't wait till Saturday morning.

My opinion as well. And the function is equal to the form. Don’t know why I waited so long to jump in on them. Price tag I guess.

Had mine for 4-5 years now and I could not be happier.  They've been used a lot and still function and look just as good as when I got them.  They are expensive but I doubt you will ever need another trap once you have them.

I put in an order the day after Christmas and received mine 1/7. You should get an email witht the tracking number once they ship. IMO worth every penny as well as the wait. They are beautiuflly crafted. Enjoy!!  :tipup:

Traps have arrived. Wow. Excellent quality. Gloss black looks highly polished like it was wet sanded. These things are almost too pretty. Need a few scratches on them. Can't wait to try them out.

That’s awesome Wayne! I no longer trap fish unless it’s bitter cold and my slammers are to tough to keep functioning but if I were to buy more that is what I would buy. I believe I met the guy one time? Is Tim Jackson his name? Anyway great trap
