    Is there anything in the world better than a prime muskrat? Honestly, I'd rather catch them over anything else. Great numbers, extremely sustainable, literally no one cares -- I've told my vegan friends that I like trapping muskrats, let them hold a hat, and they were like "oh yeah. we get that." -- and the fur is amazing. Super warm, super soft, and so pretty. I caught a really dark otter with a gorgeous throat patch last year. And honestly, now that I got one, IDK that I'll even bother with much other than muskrats.

    Thank you for your education. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this video.

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors

      Thanks! Appreciate that. We have some other instructional trapping videos and should have a bobcat how-to on the way within the next month or so. Let us know what you think of those as well. 👍🏻

    When I was young and in school, we used basket traps for muskrats with a slant door.

    Very nice video. I trap in Northern BC Canada and also have a trapping channel. We have mink and muskrat but I target more beaver and otter. Fun watching other trappers methods.

    Another awesome video keep em coming I always learn something! What did you make your baseplate out of ? Flat steel with coni bracket?

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors
      @HeirstotheOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, flat 3/16 steel plate with coni bracket tack welded to it! Happy to hear you take some stuff from our videos. We should have a beaver video coming next week. Covers 330s and snares!

    New sub. Great video! Wondering what brand camo pants the bearded guy was wearing?

  • @MrPotty1982
    @MrPotty1982 ปีที่แล้ว

    I trap in pa also, mostly just at home however I want to try other spots , do you need to ask permission at all of the bridges along roadways or can you just set them?

  • @jayroser9876
    @jayroser9876 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just found you guys and I like what I'm seeing. Do you ever use colony traps.

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors
      @HeirstotheOutdoors  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Appreciate the comment! But no we don’t, only bc they’re illegal in PA.

  • @carlbowers5580

    where do you get the baseplate from?

    • @eccanuck7
      @eccanuck7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think they already answered this in other comments. One said a bare plate that has the other parts tack welded and I see another reply that cited F&T Post, so maybe they have some on the site so you don’t have to make ur own. Hope this helps and good luck this season

    How do you trap muskrats in deep water and there is not very much muskrats

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors
      @HeirstotheOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The short answer is you don’t. Make sure there are muskrats there and find where they are going in the shallow using the methods shown in this video. Good luck!

    Can I make one

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors
      @HeirstotheOutdoors  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Which trap do you mean? A conibear or foothold? Both are for sale at a bunch of places. Check the F&T Post website.

    Did you know that the Common Muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) is the largest extant rodent of the hamster family?

    • @HeirstotheOutdoors
      @HeirstotheOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I did not! I figured they were like beavers, but I’m not one of the Heirs trappers. Very neat! 🤣 -Brian

    • @indyreno2933

      Muskrats and beavers are not related because they are not similar in molecularity, muskrats are part of the hamster family along with the hamsters, lemmings, and voles, while beavers are their own family, interestingly, all semi-aquatic rodents evolved this niche independently, the mouse-like rodents (suborder Myomorpha) have many semi-aquatic members such as members of the hamster family like muskrats and water voles, in addition to many true mice and rats (families Muridae and Sigmodontidae) also having evolved semi-aquatic niches, even a few cavy-like rodents (suborder Caviomorpha) like the nutria (Myocastor coypus) and capybaras (genus Hydrochoerus) have evolved to be semi-aquatic, squirrel-like rodents (suborder Sciuromorpha) have only one group that evolved the semi-aquatic niche, the beavers, thus muskrats and beavers are only similar due to convergent evolution.

      Where does the Nutria fall in at

      @HeirstotheOutdoors  ปีที่แล้ว

      I’d be interested to know that^ @indyreno2933
