i was wondering what are the best traps to use vs people when playing ruy lopez. i know the open defence classical  def morphy berlin are  some varitions that can produce good games but i thinking of ways to trap out of it and would like some help

I am not sure those would be called "traps"

you mean variations? 

 WHen I play the ruy lopez as black, I try to go for the morphy defense. Which develops all peices

Here's the Exchange Variation trap:

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Bxc6 dxc6 5. 0-0 Bg4 6. h3 h5 (black sacrifices the Bishop as part of the trap) 7. hxg4? (7. d3 would have been better) 7. ... hxg4 8. Nxe5? (if white moves the Knight anywhere, he would fall for the trap. It would be better for white to give up the knight) 8. ... Qh4 9. f4 g3

White has no defense against checkmate.
