Help setting coil spring on snares.

Help setting coil spring on snares.

Bought some new snares with the stingers, but I’m not sure how to set the spring. I have found plenty online that show how to set the Canadian springs (the ones that look like a conibear spring), but I can’t find anything on these coil types. Any help is appreciated. Also, if you use this particular setup and have any helpful tips, please let me know. Thanks

Any MEs working in the Anchorage, AK area?

Currently considering a move up to Anchorage and I’m trying to determine what salaries look like up there. I’m mainly interested in hearing from people with 5-10 years of experience, but if anyone is at a senior level or even runs their own office or firm I would love to hear from you as well. Thanks

Looking for a fluorocarbon recommendation.

It’s been talked to death. I’ve read all the existing threads. Now it’s my turn. I’m looking to run a bait-cast setup for small mouth. I’ll be mainly river fishing and want to run a full spool of fluorocarbon. This rod will be mainly for cranking along with some tubes and swim baits. What’s the best 12lb fluoro that’ll protect me against structure, allow for decent feel, and minimize memory/nesting. Not many pike or other toothy critters, so no issues with that. I like the Seagur Invizx, but I’m afraid it’ll be too stretchy and supple to hold up to continuously getting beat off the bottom. Is Sunline Sniper the move? What are you using?

Help finding Kamiki Intense Wood

Looking to source a bottle of Kimiki Intense Wood, but I’m being told it’s not available in my area. What exactly does this mean and what are my next steps to finding it? I’ve looked online, but mostly it’s sketchy secondary

My wife and I are looking to move to central Alaska in the next few years and are wanting some recommendations regarding neighborhoods or at least areas we should absolutely avoid. We plan to take a trip up there within the next year to scout some areas and figure out where we’d like to settle. I know this isn’t a lot to go on, but I’m happy to answer any questions you might have. Looking for a single family home with some elbow room, so nothing downtown and no apartments. Thanks!

Edit: central, not southern AK

Edit/Update 2: We have actually been to Alaska before and stayed for about 2 weeks in January. During this time we visited and stayed in Fairbanks, Anchorage, and Homer. Anchorage area was our favorite due to the close proximity to both the mountains and the ocean. We are now looking to visit during the summer and get a lay of the land when things aren’t completely covered in snow.

I’m encountering a problem where my 4 month old GSD puppy is biting and tearing up his place bed out of frustration when we’re training. We’ll work on a command and he’ll do it well a few times and then he’ll just decide he wants to go bite his bed or try to nip my hand. When he bites we just say “no”, ignore him, and once he’s settled we either try to command again or start out with an easy one like sit. The hard part is when he run to the pad that we use for place and starts trying to rip it up. He always goes to the pad and never rips up anything else. I’d like to train around this instead of just picking up “place” every time we do some training in the house. It usually takes me physically removing him by the collar or the leash before he snaps out of it and wants to train again. I’d cut the training sessions down, but he’s still focused and wants to do things. Maybe we need to take 3-4 minute breaks and do multiple sessions? Anyone dealt with puppy frustration like this?
