ABSTRACT:
A spring operated, trigger released snare for catching fish, frogs, snakes and other small animals includes a hand held pole having an intermediate barrel section, a handle section at one end and a head section at the other end. A snare wire extends through the barrel of the pole and forms a loop which projects from the head section where one end of the wire is fixed. The other end of the wire is secured to a spring biased piston which is slidably mounted in a piston chamber within the handle section of the pole. The piston includes a rearward extension which is normally projected beyond the end of the handle section by the spring actuator when the snare is tripped. The snare is cocked, or set, by pushing the rearward piston extension in until it is latched in a cocked position by a spring biased trigger. The cocking of the snare pushes the snare wire toward the head section to expand the snare loop so that it can be engaged over a small animal. Upon actuation of the trigger, the spring biased piston moves in a direction opposite to the head section and draws the snare loop tight about the animal.
