    That’s what we were waiting for…..snow, snow machine, traps along the trail and now the anticipation of what you’ll have tomorrow! Lovin it buddy! Let’s hope the Lord blesses you with full traps!

    You have a hell of a memory to recall where each set is in the dark. ALSO kudos for always giving praise to the Lord, not like those who just give lip service.

    I used to set those 330s by hand back when I was younger. Those setters are the ticket

    • @enigmaticgwichin1630
      @enigmaticgwichin1630  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah as the traps get older they get easier to set but one slip and that spring can really snap. Yeah I have a nice pair of 330 setters and they seem to have grown legs over the summer. lol. Have a good one

    Happy to see you using that RBG 330 round trap, Gary. I'm excited to see how it works out.

    Can't wait to see what you get. Your positive attitude and good spirits make watching so fun. I am not far from retirement and am going to take up trapping again when I do. This helps keep the bug alive. I wish we could trap wolves here. We have so many of them that the deer population has really suffered. They are an awesome animal but there are simply too many. Maybe by the time I retire the powers that be will allow trapping/hunting them again. Goo luck and I can't hardly wait to see what you get.

    • @enigmaticgwichin1630
      @enigmaticgwichin1630  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks. There are enough negative attitudes out there in the world, I choose to be happy through everything life throws at me.
      Awesome! it’s great to be out in the woods and trapping is a great reason to be out there. Yeah I’ve heard the same thing from a lot of people in the lower 48 about wolves. We have an over abundance of predators as well. We can trap and hunt them but there are just not as many of us doing it anymore. The trapping community would definitely love to have you join us. Thanks for writing.

    Right On! Been looking forward to your line this winter Gary!! I started trapping Jan 5th. Last week I picked up my first wolf for 2024, a 90lb male. Now just off the stretcher and heading to the tannery soon. Good luck this winter and take care out there!

    • @enigmaticgwichin1630
      @enigmaticgwichin1630  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah took a bit for the first video but the next ones will be closer together. Awesome congrats on the wolf! I have a few furs from last season that I still need to get out to a tannery. Thanks, good luck and god bless you out on you line 🙏

    Hi Gary, it's good to see you have your back healed up and are out on the line. I am happy for you. Unfortunately, this year has been a lot of medical challenges for me. Next week I am booked up with medical appointments. I guess that is what happens when you get into your seventies. Keep me in your prayers my friend. Best wishes. Dave Schmitz in North Pole

    I'm sure glad to see you using a piece of rope for your body grippers in case of trouble. Showing the rope and the trick of using it is important to your viewers. You just never know when it could save their lives. That snow sure pack hard doesn't it? Would make a good shelter in a pinch.

    • @enigmaticgwichin1630
      @enigmaticgwichin1630  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah definitely a safety issue when dealing with these traps. It does take up a bit of pocket space but definitely worth it. Oh man my ride plowed into it quite a ways but my right ski couldn’t break through to the top and drug me right into the thickest part. Oh yeah winter gear and a blanket down under those thick chunks could definitely get you through the night. Thanks for watching and writing, it’s much appreciated. God Bless

You can get hurt at night and get a stick poked in you or something he said just telling you what my dad told me lol . but we used to love night trapping when we had two skidoo and a buddy when we had cabin fever we used to go out and check a few traps. Love the video Gary keep up the good work.👋🏽✌🏽

      Thanks Mike. Up until the last two years I used to leave in the dark of the morning and return in the dark. But only for December and January. By February my line is almost fully set and I don’t need to spend 10+ hours out there, I can usually do the loop in about 6 hours. He’s right but back in the day headlights on the snow machines and headlamps were fairly weak and expensive to use. Not an excuse to trap at night but the headlamps now are crazy bright and the chance of getting poked is much lower.
      Once I was hauling firewood with a weak headlamp and the headlights were out on an old snowmachine I was using and a burned pole pointed toward me where I couldn’t see went through the hood and almost got me. Since then I’m much more cautious when out in the woods.
      I also bring a couple extra headlamps now.
      Thanks for watching and a great reminder from your dad to be extra careful out there. Have a good one and god bless

    Great and Kool trapping lessons and the dark and snowy environment makes it more entertaining but can you do videos where the camera focus and the lighting indoors makes it easier for us to understand how to set up the traps ? So us novices can learn how to trap and not just be entertained

      I see a least one set of tracks that look like a huge marten it usually passes through in one area of my line but never stops for sets or bait. I kinda figure it’s a fisher. But I’ve never heard of anybody catching one here before. If I catch one I’ll be sure to film it.👍

    Question; why 110s when most others are running 120s? Are you using the Duke magnum 110s?

    • @enigmaticgwichin1630
      @enigmaticgwichin1630  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I do have 120s to replace after a catch when I run out of 110s. But marten will expire in a #1 single long spring so a 110 is far more powerful than the traditionally used #1. They are regular 110 dukes.
      Thanks for watching. I do catch a marten in one of those 110 in a coming video and another in a 330. Which is about normal for up here. Have a good one👍
