Mine were sticky after 7 days dry time. Not too bad though. We started the fire at 12 today and have boiled 3 batches out. I think 90 steel traps and 3 dozen conibears. Probably gonna boil conibear A frames tomorrow and hot dip some snares while I'm waxing the steel traps. I'm just kicked back watching the fire now drinking a cold beer!
