  • Does it ever feel good to be back to filming the trapline series! This is the first installment of my 2022/2023 trapping series. I attempt to trap beaver as the river begins to freeze over. I also begin clearing the trail for our Marten loop and I'm keeping my eyes open for a deer to harvest. Things are starting to get wild!
    Thank you to everyone who watches. God bless!

    Here’s a tip trick for starting a stubborn quad. Take a 1 lb. propane bottle and a torch with you. When starting the quad and it is reluctant to fire, take the bottle with torch and spray some raw propane into the intake. The machine should now be easier to start.

    Set some bottom edge sets for mink, it works better than any land set for them plus you'll get bonus muskrats. Beaver are the easiest animal to catch along with muskrats as long as you don't get stupid and educate them with overuse of castor and bad trap placement. Blind set them, especially under the ice in their trails. Good luck with your trapline!

    Great video - your quality of vids is top notch, as always. Can't wait for the marten line to be up - question...when you set the marten boxes will the traps be big enough to take down a fisher? Also, I can't remember but do you have any coyotes up in your area? That must have been tough to pass on that small buck! I mean, meat is meat LOL It's gonna be a great season for you

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We've successfully harvested fisher in the 110 traps we use for marten. We also set bigger traps for fisher too.
      We do have a few coyotes up here. Not a huge population due to the wolves but enough to make it worthwhile in setting coyote snares.
      As the season progresses I'll be more inclined to shoot a small buck like the one in this video. We have seen larger deer out here though so I'm trying to be patient.

    • @deadpinecollective
      @deadpinecollective ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s very common to set beaver traps with the trigger on the bottom, but when setting lynx cubbies/traps the trigger is at the top

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The camera is a Sony CX-405.
      The trigger is set at the bottom so that when a beaver is trapped the trigger and/or dog hit the beaver on the underside. Less likely to damage the fur on top of the beaver which is what fur buyers value most. Thanks for watching!

    • @deadpinecollective

    Hunting for meat that you consume is one thing, trapping is pure greed and has been since beaver trapping in the 1800s so that men could wear beaver hats.
    Trapping is a character flaw in today's world. I doubt you will wake up soon.

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ok... what about the main reason behind trapping and hunting? Is conservation a good enough reason or am I supposed to feel bad about harvesting animals no matter what? P.S. most animals are destined for far worse deaths than being shot or caught in a trap.
