I really liked the video. Just wondering, how do you anchor your leg hold traps. Do you use cable or wire? And do you tie them off to small trees? Thanks, keep up the good work.
I used to use a 330 conibear for starlings in the back yard. I would make a ball of bread and stick it on the trip wires. I also used to use one when going out for bunnies in pipes and holes. I would just shove a sick through and the rabbit would run out the other side popping the trap. heheh. That`s about the extent of my trapping experiences. hehehe Hey Thanks for sharing your dream life . thimbs up.
Hello from north of the 51st parallel in Manitoba. Watching your videos since last season and never a dull moment. The wolves and coyotes have really hurt our white tail deer population the last couple years. A wolf pelt is worth over $235 this year, coyote almost $56. A big jump in prices this year. Learning a lot from your videos and appreciate you taking the time to explain your sets and strategy. Keep up the great work and best of the Season to you and your family.
@andrew,damn they will show im sure brother,patince im told usually pays off,now get to work ,we want to see more videos damn it!, JK you be careful brother,look forward in some more north country trapping with ya on video.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. My Grand father was a trapper in New Brunswick for years. I never got to meet him but my Uncle took me trapping a few times. Its hard to learn everything in just a few days. I wish I could live like you, but have kids now lol.
Cityboy says: pretty cool lifestyle. My kid and I skipped TV last night and watched you in action instead. My wife says you swear too much, I told her to fuck off. We built a huntcamp this year and bought some traps last month, looking forward to setting them and will follow your instructions. Where is your camp? I will look at it with Google Earth.
You are Inspirational Brother. I am Jealous of what you get to do. One of the Best Channels ever! Safe year to you. And I hope you make alot of Money!
@edfrhes i hear theres gold in the cameron river thats not too far from my cabin its up in the cameron hills i have a gold pan but i never used it before
I particularly enjoyed this video. I just moved to Minnesota from Alaska and to make a long story short, I can't trap this year because I didn't take a trapping class and they don't offer any more this year. Makes me feel like I'm setting up my old line up in Alaska.
@TheWildNorth Well, I just took the online test for the trapping education. Now I need to figure out how to get the field training portion done before trapping season. BIG pain in the ass. For the meantime, just watching TheWildNorth and waiting. Good luck trapping.
another great video andrew. every time i watch your videos i think about getting my trappers license. I've got my hunting license, but i don't know much about trapping, although my father used to do it. Thanks again and keep 'em coming!
Nice to see your update! This far I have caught 2 european marten after 6 days with 6 traps out. A nice start. I have 6 more traps to set. - giving me a total of 14. Can't wait to see your next update. I hope you snare some lynx in that counterweight. Traps with a portion of creativity are interesting. I myself have a log as a deadfall with a toggle-release set in a three. Maybe I'll make a video if I get something in it. I also have a rifle in.17 HMR. I have to agree, it's a great caliber :)
This will be my first year of trapping. You are partly to blame. Keep the vid's coming. I am trying to read,or watch video's, or prepare some part of my gear every day. Season starts in two days. Thanks again.
Hi, I enjoyed that vid dude. I'm from Wales in the Uk. This is the first vid of yours I have watched, I'm really looking forward to looking through the rest of your stuff..
killer videos man,i've watched em all and learned alot.going to try those snare pens this year here in alaska but already killed some beaver with your under ice sets last year.keep up the good work and showing a more traditional lifestyle
"The Line" is up and running! Glad to see it, and looking forward to the upcoming seasons successes. Hope to see a Lynx a-swingin'. HAWBAKERS! They operate out of my "back-yard." I will forward your videos to them!!!
Andrew. I love you videos. I just recently got into trapping myself. Im self taught so your videos are real good for instruction. Im really trying to get good at putting up fur so i can sell it. My wife and i have two kids and we sold every thing to move to alaska. Wanted to move out and show my kids how to live off the land. Keep em comin.
Andrew do you have a rough estimate of how many of each animal you get a year. Would be fun if all us regulars had a little "bragging rights" contest picking closest number trapped this new season for each species you will get this year. Keep on keeping on , great job and thank you for the vids. Iam willing to track everyone guess and trapped #'s
tomorrow I am going out on my line and hope to set out 42 power rams. Your videos keep me pumped up to get out on the line. That little bravo is one tough machine.
Andrew, trying setting you pan so it's level with the trap jaws, then use a sheet of white paper towl as a pan cover. I don't know anything about wolverine and not much of lynx but this method works excellent for coyote, fox and i'm sure wolf too.
@WorldWideOutdoors i use wax paper to cover my leghold sets white pazper towl tends to freeze sometimes.i think i demonstrate this in my next video if youtube will ever let me upload it i had 7 failed aborts trying to upload the last couple days.
Another great video!!!!! My question for you is what do you do for water? do you have a well or do you get your water from the river? Keep the videos coming I envy your life...
I love these longer videos!! You have quickly become my favorite person to watch on youtube. I know it takes some extra effort to make the videos consistently and edit them but I really do appreciate it and I know many others do as well. Your videos are far better than anything on TV here in the states!!! Good luck this season and stay safe!
Thanks for thinking of us, taking us along on the excursions. It's great to see someone who goes out and creates his own job - most of the rest of us are all bound up in highly complex networks of jobs and money and politics, you name it. And if this system starts to get shaky, there's not a a lot you can do about it.
This is what I've been waiting for the trapping videos. I've learnt alot man. Im even gonna try that pop up set for bobcat here in west virginia. U think it will work with a foot hold trap. An im new to trapping an all I use is steel foothold traps an i was wondering why u don't hide em in the snow
@orvie29 oh i hide them i cover them with wax paper to keep the rigger from freezing wen it snows it hides them great.i dident have my wax paper wen i made this video but the following days i hid them all with wax paper i demonstrate hiding them in my next video.
Great channel man. Couple questions though. I know you made a video where you made a snare, but could you make another one and actually show the pieces and tell us, well me, what you recommend for line thickness? And how much do you get up there for fur? I started looking into it where I'm at and it seems pretty decent. I'm going to start trapping because of your videos, good job.
andrew thought you should bait lynx traps/snares with small chunks ? cause there mouths are small more appealing to them , good work good videos i will getting out on my line next week ! good luck
@wiggler889 yeah wiggler i have Trapping Tales 02 finished and edited with a few catches and some more sets but youtube is fucking me around it wont upload this video i am trying to change the file format right now maybe it will be up in a few hours it failed like 7 times trying to upload...stay tuned
@TheWildNorth really, damn wolfs!hope you get a couple trapped this year! saw what they did to that coyote! hey im also woundering why do you use a 17 hmr to hunt and shoot your animals you catch? i 22lr is way less exspencive even with cci stingers witch give out roughly 180 foot pounds and 25 yards and the hmr gives of like 230 foot pounds. so i guess there is a bit of a diff but im just woundering! thanks. keep the videos comming!
Ok its that time. andrew has layed out the steel in the bush! Next videos are my faverite of all. We will get to see how a real trapper gets it done! Cant wait to see the results! I predict you will get a cat in the air this year too! thanks man peace!
How many animals do you trap in a good year? It looks like you get ALOT of everything, it makes me wonder how much wildlife there is in your area. Love you videos! Here in Sweden trapping is illegal, and we can´t hunt wolf, wolverine, hardly any lynx. But we do hunt bear, moose, deer, beaver and so on. I myself is not a hunter, I can´t get a license in this country because of really hard regulations.
Everytime i don't see your videos for a few weeks i wonder if you fell to a Bear or one of those long legged, double breasted mattress thrashers. Be safe man. Pet Charlie.
I have watched all your videos more than once, cousin and I think there great lol ,it's nice to see new country and the wildlife you have there, I have all ways wondered who influenced you ? You must have had a teacher, grandfather ? Elder?
Your not only sharing your skills as a hunter/trapper, your also documenting your life and native/ metis culture .
another winner!!! people should watch this if they think you are livin in luxury with no work to do....there is a lot of work and ingenuity involved in this work and you demonstrate it very well!!...can't wait for the next vid!!! peace joe in new york
your living the life many of us long for.... your vids are as close to this as most of us will ever get, so we thank you for your efforts. What do you shoot your videos with? We'd love to see more of the processing as you can, once again thanks man and stay safe.
Love watching your videos brother, and love the language you use. I grew up on the Canadian border in NY, and have always gotten a kick out of the "Canadian rednecks" and the language they use! I can picture 2 of you natives going into a bar, and 40 sailors running out embarrassed by the language you guys shamed them with!
Great Videos. I am looking forward to seeing your trapping results in the future. Its nice to see the gear you use and get alittle more info on your 17hmr. I saw your video on shooting that black bear and tanning the hide with Borax. Is Borax all you used and if so how long did you keep the Borax on the hide? Thanks-Martin
Can't wait to see the video with all those traps full! It was really interesting seeing your various tricks of the trade. Best channel on yt imho. Good luck this season, be safe, and post lots of videos! -Kevin
Hopefully we will get to see a lynx hanging. Here in NY- no snares and no suspended animals, which makes its a lot more limited. I have never understood the no snare rule here. Good luck.
nice to see you back can not wait for more of you great videos by the way you can set up a stirling engine generator to your wood stove to get electricity in your cabin..
can't wait to see a lynx in one of those tip-up sets. My dad and I have been fox and raccoon trapping mostly,as dad says "stacking em like firewood" lol But soon my favorite seasons opens (mink) well good luck this year and keep the videos coming.
Those Belisle traps are good. Nice safeties on them that don't fall to the side as you set them. They are pronounced bell-ill. I like the innovative sets. More interesting than a box cubby and easier to tote. Do you file teeth on your cam locks? Do you load your snares? they are really round and that's either due to the wire (1/19?) or the loading of the snare. Keep the videos coming. be safe. thanks.
I don't know why i am gining you trapping advice, you are THE EXPERT. Throw in a supper video when you can man. Up load anything we all are starved for your videos.
I really like the pole set with a snare. I used to trap cats in my garage about the same way. I'd put a 110 coni flat on the work bench with the chain tied to a roof rafter. The damn cats would jump up on the bench and get caught, jump fall off the bench and go for a swing. It was fun to go into the garage and see a cat hanging with his tounge out. Peace man.
Great video, well done. When i saw the A frame you wired together with the 220 conibear one of my trapping sets came to mind. I lay the 220 down flat on a hard flat surface with bait on the trigger. The target animal gets right over the trap, grabs the trigger bait and the coni jumps up around his head and neck. Even a fast animal can't move faster than a coni. I get them almost every time with that set. Give it a try.
awesome vid, nice to see the different sets. quick question, i heard that the 17hmr leaves a big exit hole in critters, which makes it a bad choice for dispatching trapped animals, have you had this problem?
@SurvivalInFlames if you use the jacketed hollow pont bullets they can leave a nasty hole. you gotta use the ballistic tips not the t.n.t explosives as they call em. the ballistic tips do not exit only 1 pin hole.

@TheWildNorth really, damn wolfs!hope you get a couple trapped this year! saw what they did to that coyote! hey im also woundering why do you use a 17 hmr to hunt and shoot your animals you catch? i 22lr is way less exspencive even with cci stingers witch give out roughly 180 foot pounds and 25 yards and the hmr gives of like 230 foot pounds. so i guess there is a bit of a diff but im just woundering! thanks. keep the videos comming!

How many animals do you trap in a good year? It looks like you get ALOT of everything, it makes me wonder how much wildlife there is in your area. Love you videos! Here in Sweden trapping is illegal, and we can´t hunt wolf, wolverine, hardly any lynx. But we do hunt bear, moose, deer, beaver and so on. I myself is not a hunter, I can´t get a license in this country because of really hard regulations.

@neuroleptika every year is diffrent it just depends on how many traps i get out and how hard i feel like working ha ha.

Everytime i don't see your videos for a few weeks i wonder if you fell to a Bear or one of those long legged, double breasted mattress thrashers. Be safe man. Pet Charlie.

I have watched all your videos more than once, cousin and I think there great lol ,it's nice to see new country and the wildlife you have there, I have all ways wondered who influenced you ? You must have had a teacher, grandfather ? Elder?
Your not only sharing your skills as a hunter/trapper, your also documenting your life and native/ metis culture .
Thanks

Love watching your videos brother, and love the language you use. I grew up on the Canadian border in NY, and have always gotten a kick out of the "Canadian rednecks" and the language they use! I can picture 2 of you natives going into a bar, and 40 sailors running out embarrassed by the language you guys shamed them with!

Great Videos. I am looking forward to seeing your trapping results in the future. Its nice to see the gear you use and get alittle more info on your 17hmr. I saw your video on shooting that black bear and tanning the hide with Borax. Is Borax all you used and if so how long did you keep the Borax on the hide? Thanks-Martin

Hopefully we will get to see a lynx hanging. Here in NY- no snares and no suspended animals, which makes its a lot more limited. I have never understood the no snare rule here. Good luck.

can't wait to see a lynx in one of those tip-up sets. My dad and I have been fox and raccoon trapping mostly,as dad says "stacking em like firewood" lol But soon my favorite seasons opens (mink) well good luck this year and keep the videos coming.

Those Belisle traps are good. Nice safeties on them that don't fall to the side as you set them. They are pronounced bell-ill. I like the innovative sets. More interesting than a box cubby and easier to tote. Do you file teeth on your cam locks? Do you load your snares? they are really round and that's either due to the wire (1/19?) or the loading of the snare. Keep the videos coming. be safe. thanks.

I really like the pole set with a snare. I used to trap cats in my garage about the same way. I'd put a 110 coni flat on the work bench with the chain tied to a roof rafter. The damn cats would jump up on the bench and get caught, jump fall off the bench and go for a swing. It was fun to go into the garage and see a cat hanging with his tounge out. Peace man.

Great video, well done. When i saw the A frame you wired together with the 220 conibear one of my trapping sets came to mind. I lay the 220 down flat on a hard flat surface with bait on the trigger. The target animal gets right over the trap, grabs the trigger bait and the coni jumps up around his head and neck. Even a fast animal can't move faster than a coni. I get them almost every time with that set. Give it a try.

awesome vid, nice to see the different sets. quick question, i heard that the 17hmr leaves a big exit hole in critters, which makes it a bad choice for dispatching trapped animals, have you had this problem?
SurvivalInFlames 3 months ago
@SurvivalInFlames if you use the jacketed hollow pont bullets they can leave a nasty hole. you gotta use the ballistic tips not the t.n.t explosives as they call em. the ballistic tips do not exit only 1 pin hole.
