Even for said game, no one in their right mind would set a trap with a "16-18" jaw diameter...
For the sake of argument....let's assume the amount of bait was what you said it was (50lbs), and it was "nailed to a tree", and the trap was as big as it was...and not well hidden.........then the only conclusion I can come to is, that you have an idiotic psychopath running around your woods setting traps for the hell of it, and in hopes of catching humans/bigfoot/godknowswhat.
edit ........of course, as kachoong said "Afterall it is WV."....
PS, I don't doubt you found a trap in the woods. It's just the rest of your story that seems a bit exaggerated.....or you really do have a psycho running around.
