COVERING TRAPS-camouflage

Comstock Beaver Cage Traps are have a small profile when viewed from the end so that a  swimming beaver coming from either end of the trap are not intimidated.  Frame wire that is only 1/4" in diameter is not a deterrent.  The trap is hardly more than an unconfined bare trigger wire, nothing for a beaver to avoid.  Though we do often camouflage our sets, camouflage is not a prerequisite to making a catch by any means.  Covering a trap would seem to be an issue of personal preference since these traps work well with or without coverings.  Perhaps the most important consideration for hiding a valuable trap would be to reduce theivery.
