Film Canisters
« Thread Started on Aug 13, 2008, 2:17pm »

I have used the old white 35mm film canisters for bait holders. You can pre-bait and lure them and just snap the lids on. If you really want to save time on water coon & mink lines, this is the way to go. Just pop the tops off and push them in the bank....very fast and effective! If you run earth anchors and use these, you can sling a lot of steel in a hurry! The only things you have to carry are The traps with earth anchors attached, anchor driver and pre-baited canisters.(No hammers, lure & bait jars or shovels)

No, I don't know of anyone with extras. I still use a 35mm camera, so I only use what I have....Not too many people use them anymore.

You could go up to a place that develops photos and ask if you can have theirs. I believe they just throw them away any how. Just a idea.

Google 35mm film canisters. Found a couple places that sales them. Or just use these from F&T.

Have you considered substitutions such as lids from laundry detergent jugs, mouthwash bottles, bottles that vitamins and mineral supplements come in, etc.?
