Craig I've watched this 6 times now and finally figured out what to say........ I'm really glad you made this video. The reason I've watched so many times is because I'm in the process of this. I got some that were "trappers tanned" or fleshed and dried well and I wanted to be darn sure before I tanned it. THANK YOU FOR THIS BROTHER!!
Oh fantastic brother! 😊👍👍 I’m sure you’ll do well with em, biggest part is not getting in too big of a hurry. It’s about a 10 day process with me. I can’t wait to hear how they turned out so let me know! Better yet show us on a video 😊👌 it will make a good one 😊👏👏👏
Wow wow wow!! I don't think I would ever do this but I could not stop watching! The end result was beautiful!! Their skin is tough and amazing they was differ colors from same area! God is so good!
Hi Greg! I can sure tell those furs are soft. This was awesome to watch the process. Highly interesting. The end result is awesome! Great job, Greg!!👍🦝🦝🦝😊
Hello my friend first thing is I want to wish you a very Happy Easter. I hope you are well and having a great weekend so far. Just found you today and really pleased we have your videos are awesome. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and knowledge with us really appreciate it. Stay safe and catch up again real soon God bless you. Remember Spread and share the love in these difficult times today.
Thanks so much my friend! I really appreciate you taking time to watch and the nice comments 😊 I enjoyed your last Malta tour and found it all so interesting! Take care and stay safe my friend 😊👏👏👍
Wow! Hello my friend! it's amazing! It's wonderful video! Thank you for showing me how to make fur! I tried it for the first time! It's wonderful! Nice upload! And it's great high quality video! I really like it! Thank you for sharing!
This will be my first year tanning. I really like your patience and detail. I will watch it again and may have a couple of questions if you don't mind.
Hey Terry! Best of luck buddy, I hope it’s a great season for ya. Coons are probably the hardest to do because they are so greasy. Everything else is much better 😂 Let me know if I can help ya in any way! 😊🇺🇸🔥👏👏
Great video Craig! Tanning raccoons is time consuming. It looked like they came out nice! This is a good video with very clear instructions. Thanks for sharing it!
Thanks a bunch Jeromy! I hate it ran so long but I couldn’t figure out how to split it in two lol. But I appreciate that, I hoped it be good for the first timers 😊👍👍👊
Awesome job! I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience with us first timers! I have a few raccoons, couple rabbits, and a coyote that I will be tanning shortly and appreciate you sharing your technique!
Hey my friend! I sure appreciate ya watchin and the awesome comment! I hope you’re hides turn out nice! I’m sure you’ll do a good job. Let me know how they look when ya get em done! Take care. 😊🔥👍👍👏
Hello Mr Georgia Tapping and fishing you have lots of time doing this some people n folks don't realize you have lots of time in this I seen one of my uncle when I young boy do some of them down south Georgia Jeff Davis county I watch from start to the end good video thanks so much for sharing you have a good day n be safe 👍👍
Thanks a bunch Waterbug!! I really appreciate that buddy! Yeah It takes a while to do em but I enjoy it! Ain’t much money in it now days anyway lol 😂😊👍👍👍
Hey Jake! I sure do appreciate ya takin time to watch, I hope I covered everything. If ya have any questions come up just shoot me a message and I’ll try and answer it. Thanks again brother 🙂🇺🇸🔥👍👍
Hi Greg, 👋This is a great video. 👍 Here watching you . Haven't seen anything like this before my first time. Hope everyone is well with you and your family AMEN. I have been so busy working. HAVE BLESSED WEEKEND. YOU DID A FANTASTIC JOB 👏TFS. 🙏🥰❤
Hey James! I sure appreciate you taking time to watch. I’m not the best at it for sure but these came out good for wall hangers. I’m thinking about trying the Nu Tan this year to see if there is a difference. Thanks again buddy 😊👍🔥👏👏
Thanks Dominic! And thanks for watching! It works good as long as ya don’t get deeper than the fatty membrane! But is will sure grab up some fur if you’re not careful lol 😂👍👍👍👏
Thank you for this. I've been trappin with my papa since I could walk but, we send our fur off to New York every year to get them tanned. With the prices of fur going down we don't send too much off anymore I hope this will help us!
Hey Eric! I sure appreciate you taking time to watch buddy. I hope it helps y’all out some. I send most of my furs off to Moyle mink and furs to have my bigger ones done. It’s got so expensive and nothing is paying anymore so it makes it tough. Those coons are probably the worst to do because of all the grease in em but the coyotes and foxes are a lot easier. Just don’t salt bath the foxes as long or they will slip. Thanks again for watchin 😊🔥👍👍
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing It appears from Moyle mink web site that they do not accept furs/hides from individuals, and that such hides need to be sent to them through a licensed trapper who is set up to do business with Moyle. I am in the Augusta, GA area and am thinking of getting some hides soft tanned for things like hats, gloves and such. Do you accept hides from individuals to be sent to Moyle or what would be my best way to get my goal accomplished. I would probably never have more than just a few at a time or say about 6 or so. I hope that you are well and doing good and will see this post. Thank you for the video and feedback on my comment.
You did a awesome job demonstrating on tanning those furs. If I was asked to give a recommendation for fur tanning you would win hands down !! I enjoyed watching every minute of it. Later buddy 👍🏻
Hey Chip! I sure appreciate that brother! I was worried about it being too long but I didn’t want to leave any steps out. I hoped it would help some of the younger fellas out when they are just getting started. Thank you again buddy 😊👍👍👍👏
That’s awesome Craig, had no idea the time it takes to do one, let alone all the ones you did. Can’t wait for the chance to join ya and go through start to finish on a hide next season man! Keep em comin’ Brother!
im gonna be spending some time watching your vids for sure! I have beavers in the pond next to my yard an recently found a darn muskrat in the yard. My son would love to have their fur!
Oh thanks a bunch! 😊 I saw that big muskrat! You could get some nice pelts if ya get em lol. If I get some extras next season I’ll try to send ya a couple for him 👌 fur buyers aren’t paying much these days any way😂 I appreciate ya stopping by and watchin 😊👏👏👏
Great job brother! Really like those different color coons. Here in the Northeast seems we get more darker ones. Keep up the videos they are fantastic.
I sure appreciate that brother! Those were the reddest coons I’ve caught so far! I’m not sure what causes it but I caught 3 with that color tails ? But they were definitely all varieties in that bunch lol. Thanks for always watchin bud! 🙂👍👍👊
Hello! Thanks for sharing this video! You did an amazing job on the tutorial from start to finish and were very detailed with the instructions. My 10 yr. old son is SO interested in tanning and hunting. He found this video on his own. Can you please share with me some different ideas of what to use the tanned skins for? Obviously a hat lol, but what are some other ways that you would use the tanned skins?
Hey there Amanda! I’m so glad your son enjoyed the video, I was worried it was kinda long lol. But ya can’t skip any steps so I just couldn’t cut it. It’s good to hear that he is interested in hunting and skinning. Maybe we will have another trapper in the works 😊. I’ve only had mine made into coon skin caps but I have seen mittens made with them and if you take the hair off it will basically be just leather and you could make gloves with them. I saw a girl make a quiver for her hunting arrows with them also. I sell a lot of mine for wall decorations also. I hope this helps and please tell him thanks for watching my video! I appreciate you taking time with your son and supporting his interests too! Y’all take care and thanks again! Craig 😊🔥
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing Thank you for this!!💓 Yes, I'm sure if he gets through this and loves it he will do it all the time!! If he was to just keep the leather, how do you remove the hair? Or do you have a video where you teach that?
@@amandaoswald3676 if he leaves the hide in the salt bath a little extra time the hair will come off. He may have to do a bit of scraping but it should come right off. Y’all let me know how it went and good luck with everything 😊👌
Much appreciated brother! Yeah I think the dremel does a better job just don’t get it near the fur, it will take ya for a ride 😂👌 thanks for watching as always 🇺🇸👊🔥🍻🍻
I started in on this video last night but got interrupted. There is a lot that goes into tanning a hide. I didn't know it took that many steps. Great video on how to do it.
Thanks a bunch! I hate it ran so long but I didn’t want to cut any steps out. It takes a good bit of time to do it but it’s kinda fun.I sure appreciate ya hangin in there and watchin 😊👏👏👏👍
Hey there my friend! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. On my salt bath I used swimming pool salt. It’s a more course salt but it’s much cheaper than the table salt and works good. I think I got mine at Accadamy sports or Walmart. The table salt works best for the beginning salting and if you are doing feet on it’s easier to pack into the feet. Just make sure to use non iodized salt. And if you’re doing fox I wouldn’t leave it it the salt bath but a few hours, you may get some slippage. I hope this helps and I hope you’re hides turn out nice 😊🔥👏👏
I use mix & fine stock salt from the feed store. Its pretty cheap for 50lb. I've never tried that tanning solution, I've always made my own but I might just try it. Gonna try to tan the beaver I caught but I've never even skinned one before last week. Hoping I dont ruine it.
Awe you’ll do great AL! I’m glad ya got ya a beaver this year, they’re my favorite. Take a look at Jeromy Coooley’s last video on doin beavers. I really liked his skinning and salting. The orange bottle works really well and is just easier to me. Let us see how ya do buddy! 😊🔥👍👏👏
Great video! Thank you for the information, I plan to do some raccoon furs for the first time this year. Do you need to put the pelts on a stretcher and dry them after you flesh them or can you move right on into this process of tanning them after fleshing?
Hey Kevin! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch and the great question. All my furs were on the boards drying already but I’m sure you could go straight from fleshing and skip the boarding process. That way you would be ready to go. Spend as much time degreasing them, they are some greasy critters lol. Best of luck and let me know how they turn out buddy! 😊👍👍👏
He said take it easy ! That hurts.. 😆😂 scratch the fat then beat him to death! Wtw! Yay a salt bath! What ? No calgon?# 🤣 thank you for sharing it with us... Appreciated! You have a great day and week
Thanks so much my friend! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. I know it was a long one but I didn’t want to leave any steps out lol. I hope it works good for ya and if ya have any questions just shoot me an email . Thanks again! 😊🔥👍👏👏
Awesome Enos! I’m lookin forward to seein them. Mark J Larson got his a lot softer than mine on his videos but mine were fine for a walk display. I appreciate ya buddy! 😊👍👏👏🔥
Hey James! I just used pool salt from Walmart in the 25 pound bags cause I had so many hides to soak . For rubbing salt I used one pound containers from the grocery store. Just regular table salt. I hope this helps ya buddy and I appreciate ya taking time to watch 🙂🔥👍👍
Hey Mario! No sir, I think if you have a fleshing machine like the ones the tannery uses you could do just as good a job. But it’s really tough to get them to the garment grade hides that they do. It’s completely fine for a walk hanger but if I’m doing hats or mittens I always send mine off to be professionally done. I hope this helps and if ya have any more questions I’d be glad to answer! Take care buddy 🙂🔥👍👍👏
Hey brother when I hear we gonna tan some hides I look back for my parents reflex from being and bad kid lol thanks for the lesson brother I got a Shoutout for you coming later today on my mail call video.
I sure appreciate ya watchin Hayden! I think coons are about the worst there is to get that grease out. Fox and coyotes are a lot easier lol. Thanks a bunch brother and I hope your season is going well 🙂🔥👍👍
@@callahanoutdoors very cool! We don’t start here until December 1st. You’ll have to let me know how y’all are doing each week cause it will be killin me 😂😂👌 stay safe! 😊👍👍👊
Hey Jon! I Skinned them and fleshed them and put them on the stretching boards. And let them hang during trapping season. I would have sold them just like that but prices were so low I decided to just tan em. That’s when I started the process 🙂👍👏👏🔥 I appreciate ya watching buddy
Hey Racheal 👋 I used non-iodized salt. Any brand is fine, it takes a lot so get it where you find it the cheapest lol. I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. Let me know how your hides turn out 😊👌👏👏
Hey Jacob! No it’s a small fleshing tool I usually use for fleshing tight spots on beavers. I believe you can find them at F&T Trading Post or at Murray’s Lures web sites. They work good for small areas where you can’t get a fleshing knife. Hope this helps and I appreciate you commenting my friend! 😊🔥👍👍👏
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishingThanks for the quick reply. I will definitely look that up! Im drying a hide out now and should be ready to start the proccess and day!
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing Hi Greg, I hope you had a great Christmas. Ive salted my hide and givin it the salt bath, is there any certain way Im supposed to hang it up to dry now? I didnt know if I should hang it on a board, by the nose, or just toss it over a beam. Thanks
@@jacobherzog6202 hey Jacob! I just hang mine by the nose on a nail. They will usually dry pretty flat and you want the air to circulate up through the fur side too. I hope yours turn out nice and let me know how they did! 😊👍👏👏
Hey there my friend! I usually get my fur handling tools from F&T Trading Post. They carry a pretty good selection. I sure appreciated ya watchin and commenting! 😊🔥👍👍👏
Hey Bob 👋 I fleshed em on my beam first and the little hand held scraper I bought at F&T Trading post. I use it a lot once I’ve fleshed my hides and boarded them to scrape the extra fat I may not have got the first time. I hope this helps and I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch 🔥🔥👍👍👍
Hey very cool video man, that's alot work few days patience get them things like that. You have them looking real good.. do you sell them? I'd love one. And that hat looks good on ya man 🤘💯🍻
Love the video great instruction. . .were gonna try some deer hides this fall here in NW PA. Saw your channel on some of Boxie`s stuff, finally got a chance to check your channel out, hit us up when you have time!

Thanks a bunch! I hate it ran so long but I didn’t want to cut any steps out. It takes a good bit of time to do it but it’s kinda fun.I sure appreciate ya hangin in there and watchin 😊👏👏👏👍
Shoot if thats what it takes. That's what it takes. It kept me and an eight year old interested so that's saying something lol.
Great instructional video, really enjoyed it.
Thank you Irene! It got a little long winded lol 😂👏👏👍
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing not at all, the more information the better.
@@Outdooracademe thanks, I was a little worried about it lol 🙂👌
i love how you did it brother. here's one for you!
Thanks so much brother! I appreciate you watching 😊👍👍👊
Good video, thanks for sharing 🥰
Thank you so much my friend 😊❤️👏👏👏
I know im late to the party. But i love your video. However just one question. When you make the salt bath on day 3 what type of salt do you use?
Hey there my friend! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. On my salt bath I used swimming pool salt. It’s a more course salt but it’s much cheaper than the table salt and works good. I think I got mine at Accadamy sports or Walmart. The table salt works best for the beginning salting and if you are doing feet on it’s easier to pack into the feet. Just make sure to use non iodized salt. And if you’re doing fox I wouldn’t leave it it the salt bath but a few hours, you may get some slippage. I hope this helps and I hope you’re hides turn out nice 😊🔥👏👏
Like 47 nice video thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much my wonderful friends 😊❤️👏👏👏
Fur tanning Racoon ..intersting thank you I got an idea ..take care
Thanks so much my friend!😊 I appreciate that! 👏👏👏👏
I use mix & fine stock salt from the feed store. Its pretty cheap for 50lb. I've never tried that tanning solution, I've always made my own but I might just try it. Gonna try to tan the beaver I caught but I've never even skinned one before last week. Hoping I dont ruine it.
Awe you’ll do great AL! I’m glad ya got ya a beaver this year, they’re my favorite. Take a look at Jeromy Coooley’s last video on doin beavers. I really liked his skinning and salting. The orange bottle works really well and is just easier to me. Let us see how ya do buddy! 😊🔥👍👏👏
Great video! Thank you for the information, I plan to do some raccoon furs for the first time this year. Do you need to put the pelts on a stretcher and dry them after you flesh them or can you move right on into this process of tanning them after fleshing?
Hey Kevin! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch and the great question. All my furs were on the boards drying already but I’m sure you could go straight from fleshing and skip the boarding process. That way you would be ready to go. Spend as much time degreasing them, they are some greasy critters lol. Best of luck and let me know how they turn out buddy! 😊👍👍👏
He said take it easy ! That hurts.. 😆😂 scratch the fat then beat him to death! Wtw! Yay a salt bath! What ? No calgon?# 🤣 thank you for sharing it with us... Appreciated! You have a great day and week
great video! I am going to try this method. thanks
Thanks so much my friend! I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. I know it was a long one but I didn’t want to leave any steps out lol. I hope it works good for ya and if ya have any questions just shoot me an email . Thanks again! 😊🔥👍👏👏
Good video and great job my friend!
very interesting! stay connected

Thank you so much my friend! I also enjoyed your wonderful poetry 🙂🙂👏
Nice work 💗
Thanks for sharing I'm getting ready to tan some Coyote hides real soon
Awesome Enos! I’m lookin forward to seein them. Mark J Larson got his a lot softer than mine on his videos but mine were fine for a walk display. I appreciate ya buddy! 😊👍👏👏🔥
What kind of salt do you use for coating the hides in? And what kind of salt do you use for the salt bath? Thanks!
Hey James! I just used pool salt from Walmart in the 25 pound bags cause I had so many hides to soak . For rubbing salt I used one pound containers from the grocery store. Just regular table salt. I hope this helps ya buddy and I appreciate ya taking time to watch 🙂🔥👍👍
great job.I watch the full video. Please stay connected.
Thank you my friend! I enjoyed your last video also and joined your great channel 😊👏👏👏
Hi Sir do you think the home tanning is as good as if is send away as long as is done right....ex video
Hey Mario! No sir, I think if you have a fleshing machine like the ones the tannery uses you could do just as good a job. But it’s really tough to get them to the garment grade hides that they do. It’s completely fine for a walk hanger but if I’m doing hats or mittens I always send mine off to be professionally done. I hope this helps and if ya have any more questions I’d be glad to answer! Take care buddy 🙂🔥👍👍👏
Hey brother when I hear we gonna tan some hides I look back for my parents reflex from being and bad kid lol thanks for the lesson brother I got a Shoutout for you coming later today on my mail call video.
Oh I sure appreciate that James! I’ll make sure I watch and yeah I heard I’ll tan your hide a lot too! Lol 😂😂 thanks again brother! 👊
Nice video buddy! Thats how I do em
I sure appreciate ya watchin Hayden! I think coons are about the worst there is to get that grease out. Fox and coyotes are a lot easier lol. Thanks a bunch brother and I hope your season is going well 🙂🔥👍👍
Great video brother
Hey Scott! I sure appreciate it buddy! Think I’m gonna try doin some Coyotes this year. 🙂🔥👍👍
🤠 awesome process, I know enough to git me in trouble 🤣

thx for the visit
full support for you
stay connected 61
Thanks so much my friend! 😊🌹👏👏👏
After I skin a coyote, what is the very next thing I should do? Does salt not come into the equation until later?
This will be my first time tanning a hide on the 2nd day of salting a possum hide, how long do i soak it for in the salt solution? For?
Awesome video buddy keep good content coming
I sure appreciate that! I’m hoping for a good season this year and maybe put up some good fur! Thanks a bunch for watchin! 😊👍👍👍👏
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing got till November 6 to get ready for wv season my daughter and I just keeps planning and talking about it

@@callahanoutdoors even better! Lol 😊👍👍👍 I’ll look for it !
Where they just fleshed, stretched and salted before you started?
Hey Jon! I Skinned them and fleshed them and put them on the stretching boards. And let them hang during trapping season. I would have sold them just like that but prices were so low I decided to just tan em. That’s when I started the process 🙂👍👏👏🔥 I appreciate ya watching buddy
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing no problem will continue watching & following; great content.
@@jondaniel5668 Hey Jon! I appreciate that and I hope I have a few more vids you’ll enjoy brother! Have a great week 😊👍👍🔥
Chia sẻ video rất hay bạn ơi👍👍
Thank you my great friend! 😊🌹👏👏
What kind of salt did you use for the salt bath?
Hey Racheal 👋 I used non-iodized salt. Any brand is fine, it takes a lot so get it where you find it the cheapest lol. I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch. Let me know how your hides turn out 😊👌👏👏
woowww.....good video ....
Thanks so much my friend! 😊👍👍👊
Verry nice
Thank you my friend! I enjoyed your last video also 😊👏👏
Curious about the tool you were using in the beginning to some touch up fleshing. Is that a candle holder or something?
Hey Jacob! No it’s a small fleshing tool I usually use for fleshing tight spots on beavers. I believe you can find them at F&T Trading Post or at Murray’s Lures web sites. They work good for small areas where you can’t get a fleshing knife. Hope this helps and I appreciate you commenting my friend! 😊🔥👍👍👏
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishingThanks for the quick reply. I will definitely look that up! Im drying a hide out now and should be ready to start the proccess and day!
@@jacobherzog6202 Fantastic Jacob! I hope it turns out well for ya. I’m sure you’ll do a nice job on it! 😊👌👍👍🔥
@@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing Hi Greg, I hope you had a great Christmas. Ive salted my hide and givin it the salt bath, is there any certain way Im supposed to hang it up to dry now? I didnt know if I should hang it on a board, by the nose, or just toss it over a beam. Thanks
@@jacobherzog6202 hey Jacob! I just hang mine by the nose on a nail. They will usually dry pretty flat and you want the air to circulate up through the fur side too. I hope yours turn out nice and let me know how they did! 😊👍👏👏
nice job brother
Thanks Coffey! I sure appreciate it 🙂👍👍
Where do you get your scraping tools?
Hey there my friend! I usually get my fur handling tools from F&T Trading Post. They carry a pretty good selection. I sure appreciated ya watchin and commenting! 😊🔥👍👍👏
Nice video 👍👍
Thanks so much 😊 I appreciate that! 🌹
Nice video
Thank you my great friend! 😊👏👏👍
What kind of tool did u use to do the scraping?
Hey Bob 👋 I fleshed em on my beam first and the little hand held scraper I bought at F&T Trading post. I use it a lot once I’ve fleshed my hides and boarded them to scrape the extra fat I may not have got the first time. I hope this helps and I sure appreciate ya taking time to watch 🔥🔥👍👍👍
جميل بالتوفيق ان شاء الله 👍👍
Thank you my friend! 😊👏👏🌹👍
