How do you make a squirrel snare?

Assuming you are making a snare from a rope or line, and depending on its size, use a bowline on the bight. If you are using a bigger line or cable, (1/4" or bigger ) use a whipped end or a small cable clamp. If you use a whipped end, be sure to glue your lashes. If you are using a steel cable, and if you don;t want to use a clamp or a whipped end on a cable, you can solder the end with a tight fitting ferrule or tube. Use a hammer to distort the shape of the tube.
