I have huge traps and pretty small delts... and whenever i try to work delts i always end up using traps no matter what exercise i use.

It will pretty much be the case.

You can do things like Side Raises which should reduce Trap recruitment, or do the Lying side raises, where you lie sideways on a bench, with your Arm in a L shape not straight as usual, and raise to the side as normal.

Again that should reduce the interaction of the Traps.
