I only watch professionals and you are one. I have watched you for some time now and there is something thing about how you go about your business. You enjoy it but it brings in the bucks. Trapping is so rewarding and the effort put in for the big blanket is the icing on the cake. From a uk trapper.
Could you do a video of how you find bank dens? I'm sure there are new trappers that could use all the info they could take, myself included in that. If you could also say why, you think there's a den there would be very helpful. Thanks for the informative videos btw.
When you set the trap in the run like a flag pole style the other side can swivel (think of a flag flapping in the wind). The swivel stick stabilizes the other side from moving or rotating around.
I have had beavers disappear all of a sudden most of the time it was a creek going through a cornfield and the corn got picked! the next common denominator was the lack of a feedpile. Trap shy beaver I have a story about that!

19:22 So what do you do, or how do you catch ''trap-shy'' beavers?
Snares in the runs or footholds in the spring will catch them
How did you know there was a bank den there? Just a little open water spot by shore, or ? Thanks.
yeah. I like those black beavers too. you like never wanna go back.
I tried 1 handed spring compression on my Belisle 330. No can do, I have to use the setters
Could try snares.. or come back in the spring... Or there seed for the lakes around there..haha
What’s plan B? Snares? Footholds & Bearded Man in the spring??!? Somehow I don’t think that those beaver have seen the last of 330 Maniac…
I was about to ask that. 🙂
Yep exactly!!
Thank you

What does the swivel stick do?
