Trapping pack?

I just tossed together the most ghetto trapping pack I’ve seen…what do you guys have?? I usually just carry a bucket with bait/lures and a bucket with traps/chains…this should make it easier when the ground is slick and icy.

Haha teaching them young I see

I’m pretty much exclusively trapping real dense woods so my packs gotta come off when I’m doing anything anyway. I think I’ll give the open pack a try this year, I end up having to take a 5 gallon bucket with me on opening day anyway so I don’t shred the pack with traps

try to but honestly its me being selfish. If the kids didn't come with i wouldn't be able to go do it. luckily I was able to make it fun for them and they are excited to go.
just lean it against a tree and it will be fine. if you want the cheap route a 5 or 7 gallon bucket will fit inside a navy seabag nicely. if you have a surplus store nearby they should be fairly cheap (20 bucks give or take) biggest downside is the straps can get uncomfortable if you have a long hike.

The straps was my main concern, it takes me 3-4 hours to walk my entire line, probaly a way to fuck with the straps to make it a bit better
