Way to stay after them. You are so right about learning what a certain pack will do. I have been trying to trap a pack for two years and slowly learning the places they like to cross, hunt etc. Had several near misses with snares. Foot holds are tough to keep going with our freeze/thaw snow here. Good luck and thank you for doing your part to keep their numbers down. Sure helps the moose calves survive their first year.

[@PatterningNature]

Brother, set your bait pile somewhere you know they are. Then set your snares/traps 50-75 yards away from your bait. Wolves never come straight to the bait… they come in like a wagon wheel… the spokes of a wagon wheel is how they diverge on a bait or kill because they’ve had millions of years of lessons knowing free food isn’t always free. If you set too close to your bait pile, you will miss wolves. But the further you get away & set, your success rate will climb. If you have any elevations like a hill, going up/down a slope, set your snares on the hill because Wolves don’t typically pay much attention when they’re coming down a hill, or up… don’t ask me how I know this but rather just have learned over the years. Best of luck & stay safe out there!!!

Been more times than I can count them grouse jump up beside me and make me about pee me pants lol. Love the sound of that snow, a guy could keep a foothold working in them conditions. Stay after it bud. Great content

[@PatterningNature]

Hahahahahah right!?!? I've actually walked into 2 Wolves before walking on a trail & my instinct was to raise my firearm & shoot... so its funny how Grouse can scare the piss out of you, yet you see a Wolf & its automatically "shoot it" LOL! Was a cold one that day, as you can "hear" by the snow crunchy-ness! Warming up now - I hope to get out a handful more to do some calling & maybe get them howling back at me, we will see!

I visited Red Lake back in September 1975. I went to see a friend of mine at the fire center. I declined the opportunity to climb the fire tower. Got some fishing in at the lake when we stayed on a small island. The northern pike that I caught scared the crap out of me. It was huge. Take care and stay safe. From: Petawawa. Ontario.

[@PatterningNature]

Thank you for the loving comment & for stopping by!!! It seems like Red Lake has a piece of everyones heart, filled with memories of fishing or just simply visiting here for work! The Pike up here are GIANT - My biggest is 48 inches believe it or not LOL Stay well & safe out there - God bless!

[@bearbait2221]

LOL the old wild chicken shot of adrenalin. Cool vid

[@PatterningNature]

LOLLLL you nailed it on the head - nothing gets the heart racing like a bush-chicken taking off 1-foot away from you on the trail hahahahh!

[@franklinmullen2881]

I have fished right by those beautiful rocks lol. Great footage my friend. Let's kick some ass this weekend.

[@PatterningNature]

As always man, every weekend kickin' ass & watchin' Wolves lol

[@everythingloud4068]

I was hunting a pack last week here in Montana, and I followed the tracks, and they had dug up a black bear and ate it. That's the first time I've ever seen that

[@PatterningNature]

I've only seen that once in my lifetime so far! North of us, near the First Nation Territory of Pikangikum that happened - Wolves dug up a Bear den, yanked it out & totally ripped it apart. Only thing left was the head & an arm - just a nutty sight to see!

[@michaelcarron3418]

I see a lot of young growth in the hill and dale section, a good feeding zone for moose and grouse.

[@PatterningNature]

100%!!! I didn't show it, but I was walking passed Moose tracks every 5-10 feet!!! Tons of Moose, Rabbit & Grouse in that area due to the amazing feed they have at their disposal. I think every little bush was chewed on by Moose hahah!

[@scottelton4012]

Pretty cool video

[@PatterningNature]

Thank you Scott! I appreciate you stopping by & watching - God bless my friend!

[@montanawolftrapper8666]

Get off the couch is what I say. You cant catch a wolf on the couch! Your odds are better if you set one trap. Odds get better if you set more! Wolf trapping and hunting can hurt a guys feelings. The goods trappers and hunters have thick skin and enjoy the epic marathon of pursuing wolves. Good video. I see the gratitude and no bad attitude. Thanks

[@Benandlandon]

You got it! Cheers man!

[@PatterningNature]

I appreciate the kind words & wisdom!!! I agree... Heck, even when I break something out in the field ice fishing, or hunting I don't even get upset anymore... Know why? YOU DON'T BREAK ANYTHING ON THE COUCH EXCEPT YOUR OWN HEALTH! If that don't inspire you, I duno what would LOL!!!! Stay safe & well out there friends!!!! God bless

[@robertrosicki9290]

I'm just thinking about getting back into snowmobiling and was wondering what brand and model your helmet is . Looks like it works well in the extreme cold ?

[@PatterningNature]

Oh goodness, it's just a very affordable off-brand motorcycle helmet LOL There isn't even a brand nane labeled on it to give you - sorry, Robert. It isn't meant for snowmobiling or winter - but with a full face & neck balaclava, plus a BUFF neck warmer & then add on a thicker 2nd neck warmer you're golden 😄 Some folks just wear open face helmets with goggles but I think my cheeks would freeze off going 50km/hr down the lake in -40 LOL

[@robertrosicki9290]

@@PatterningNature Thanks for the tips .

[@markmeneau8237]

Keep hammering em'!

[@PatterningNature]

Have passed on dozens of Wolves this year - I'm in the middle of moving so taking a Wolves life isn't a positive choice to make when you don't have the freezer space anyways LOL Need another chest freezer - then once i'm moved I can start stripping & tanning.

[@tubbyguyoutdoors]

Right on bud ! Diggin the info on wolf baits and habits . Just wish I had your money , I mean anyone that can afford to get their lashes done then head to the bush just to ruin them I mean must be nice ! Lmao Jk must have got cold quick for that much black ice that’s awesome wish it happened here . Hasn’t been a good year for ice for us . Thanks for taking us along

[@PatterningNature]

LOLLLL hey the lashes were free of charge... The wolves booked me in without my knowledge... I just had to show up ;-) hahahah!!!!! We've had a beautiful winter - I can't complain about -34 weather because the first 3 months of winter was between -5 and -15... Thats like T-shirt weather!!!! LOL

[@michaelcarron3418]

Rabbits,..must be some link cats around too.

[@PatterningNature]

TONS of Rabbits!!!! The last 2 years up here has been absolutely nutty for the Rabbit population - which I'm surprised because last year we had a record snow fall year & very cold temps.

[@mikeskidmore6754]

In the USA you can carry a handgun on your Sled.. Maybe some Bear Spray. Commiada

[@PatterningNature]

Oh man, I wish we could do the same here. Some trappers are allowed to carry a specific caliber handgun on their trap line but other than that, you have to be law enforcement & working on-duty to legally carry a handgun. I don’t leave the house without my rifle or shotgun, because either I’m hunting whatever is in season, or target practicing out in the bush - it’s a tool that I’ll always carry next to my multi tool, knife & axe/saw!

[@mikeskidmore6754]

@@PatterningNature I commuted when I thought they were snowmobilers. Actually they are Trappers or Hunters using a snowmobile for Transporation. I Noticed later in he Video that they are at least carrying a Long Gun. In the USA they are trying to Ban Military style Rifles.. If they get them banned , next they will go after Hunting Rifles by calling them Sniper Rifles. They say you have a better chance to survive a Bear Attack with Bear Spray .. as it takes a Bear 2 minutes to bleed out after you shoot them and they can kill you in that two minutes. I would prefer to have both Bear Spray and a 44 Mag hand Gun

explain to me why you would want to catch or trap or kill a wolf please......

@@PatterningNature Like wise. Let's check back ten years from now to see if you still harbor all these inner hostilities. Those wolves represent an intricate part of nature, killing such a beautiful creature for a trophy is ghoulish... and sick.

@North Canada Fishing I should take my own advice. I've missed 4 coyotes this winter using my AR and a red dot. Just got a .243 with a scope, hope that fixes my sideways shooting!

[@PatterningNature]

@@76tryg hahahaha those 4 coyotes are lucky buggers LOL!!! I don’t doubt they stand a chance now with what you’ve got your hands on - do you use a Fox Pro to call them in?
