[@davidingram353]

There is some blue sky in most of your shots Norm the weather looked great. Just a little lull on the line. Be careful in that slush, been their and it's not fun.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Dam slush. I’ve moved on from that area. Just asking for trouble around there.

[@dan-jc8vq]

Another great video Norm it looks like you have a nice pack of wolfs about. Thanks for the adventure…..Stay warm out there….

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks, you too!

When I was a kid I hunted with my Uncle and one time we came across a whole herd of deer tracks. My Uncle said if we could eat those tracks we'd never be hungry.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Hahaha right on

[@davidgingerich2230]

Yea Norm I'm setting here beside my warm woodstove watching your videos. Keep them cameras rolling. Keep the action going. I'm enjoying every single minute of them.Thanks

Hi Norm, Arctic Circle Dave from Alaska here. I have been enjoying your videos very much this season as I have not gotten out trapping. Your care in making interesting and authentic videos is what sets you above many others on youtube no matter what the catch is like in a season. I appreciate your attention to detail and sharing the ups and downs of a real trapline. I wish we could sit down with cups of tea and talk for hours about our experiences. As always, I wish you well and pray that God will keep you safe and bless your efforts. Dave

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks Dave. That chat would take us months lol

[@laurienortherngirl7452]

Another awesome video! I cannot believe how good your mic is to have it close to the machine and not hear the wind. Crystal clear.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

It works well now. I only put on a wind foam. Cheap solution.

awesome scenery ...and get video

Thanks 👍

Another great video Norm, they should start moving better with the weather change it will pick up!! Stay safe and warm brother!!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

I hope so too trapper. But the marten season is ending in a few days. All I have out is my new north line. Next season.

[@michaelcarron3418]

That's quite a pack of wolf beds you found there. Those moose tracks must be its being pushed by them.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Agreed MC

Beautiful vid again Norm. Nick here, stay safe and enjoy. Hope the catch improves for ya, but either way, spending time on the line is a good day. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks 👍 You nailed it. I’m lucky just to be in such a place.

[@robertsimard735]

Thanks for bringing us along on the trapline Norm. Have a great week.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks, you too!

[@AlaskaWoody]

Great show Norm. Hope you pinch a few of those wolves.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Man!!! I feel I was close but the bush is tight on the north line. Sneak away easy.

[@victorfortin542]

Thanks for the ride!! Now get those tracks skinned !!😉😉

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Hahaha

[@mainemagic4968]

Hi Norm, Your videos are alway a bright spot for me here in Maine...Glad to see the energy level is back up for you...friend traps up in NW Maine and he was given a couple of deer legs which he painted the fur with some lure scents...he cut the tendons and made a bungee drag for his trap line...he drags it when checking his traps...his thinking is that something will follow scent to his traps and bait and maybe the Fur Gods will smile upon him...Cheers from Maine.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

I’ve heard of this. I’m sure it works. Thanks MM

[@locksbog4270]

Maybe you can make a drawer or an access door from the outside of the box for your mits and put a floor above it and utilize the whole box, just a thought Norm I usually don’t have many lol 👍😃✌️

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

That's a great idea!

[@miket7569]

Fantastic! Another new video. I hope you are having a good season this year. I can't believe it is going to be March next week already.

Going by fast Mike

Still out there plugging away Scott

[@meolson9197]

Thought about you up there with the bad storm that blew through the northern plains down here. Wolf packs and weather - keep an eye out, Norm.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Oh my eyes are waiting to spot one but the north line comes first. It’s come a long way. You will see. I’m back to myself again.

[@freightdawg6762]

Excellent!!!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks Dawg

[@FeiTongWen]

Always something to learn from you: if not about trapping, its weather, film editing, or something else. Nice weather!!! Here's hoping I get a little of the same next week, when I'm off to Nunavut to hunt polar bear.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Polar bear hunt eh. I know a few that have done that.

[@lynnmoore2664]

Thanks for another greatly done video Norm. Really love all the different angles you shot in this one. You're really putting out very great content and it just gets better each episode. I would really like to see to you catch a couple of those wolves this season aw well!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

I need one lol thanks Lynn

[@reginaldwinsor2759]

Great video. Stay safe.

Thanks, you too!

[@bruinsfan8278]

Thanks Norm, Well Done done! Checking out those Wolf Beds was interesting, notice they lay down at the top of the hill, no ones sneaking up on them, Thanks again !!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Very interesting indeed.

Great video Norm 📽 take care of your self enjoy your season 🍻👍

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks, you too RW

[@thecamocowboyoutdoors5693]

Another great show Norm! That's a lot of Wolf beds. Would be nice if you could snag a few and help the Moose out. Do you have any Whitetails that far north? Likely not. Take care my Friend.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

No white tails here. I’ve been close to the wolves but the bush is tight where I am on the north line. Need some luck which is in short supply this year for me. lol

[@NSTRAPPERHUNTER]

Had a great visit with you Norm. Later and all the best.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks Barry

[@timminstraprs2169]

You certainly have a gorgeous line Norm. Stay safe chum. 👍✌️

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Thanks, you too!

[@elwoodtaylor1092]

Thanks for the ride along Norm and hopefully the good weather gets the critters moving around the trap-line, the wolfs seem plentiful maybe we'll snag one of them, I've never seen a wolf bed until now thanks

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

I’m hoping to get one ET

great video as always Norm!! thanks for taking us along for the ride & be safe out there.. hope you get a wolf in a trap soon, looks like theres plenty there to weed out!!!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Lots around but I’m in a area they jump right in the bush. Pretty sure I was seconds behind a few at one point.

[@deanjollow2892]

Looks beautiful there Norm. Almost March. I’m surprised you don’t scare up more ptarmigan or grouse on your trap line. Maybe you do,they are gone in the blink of an eye..stay safe

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Lots of ptarmigan around and spruce hens

[@name-ey5it]

Norm do you notice the difference in the weather up there.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Oh yes. Not much snow either.

[@mikee6522]

As always, Norm, excellent videos!! I would like to see you explain how people get trapped rights in the Providences of Canada? I think the rules are way different for us in the states?

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Great suggestion Mike. Thanks

[@wilfmaloney3336]

Thanks for the video Norm. Lots to do to keep you busy. Good to see you are feeling better. Just wondering if you were to buy a new snow machine what would you buy. Same one with struts or would you change it up. You seemed to be pleased with your scandic. Take care best wishes on the trapping from Newfoundland!!

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

I’d buy the same one. Struts are good for not catching stumps. I like the extra power of the 900ace

I hate to say it I have been curious about your fish bait because I never had much luck with it. I basically only used fresh white suckered chunks that I chopped and only for Mink. Froze them fresh not rotten. That might be your problem. 🤔

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Everyone uses it around here. I don’t understand the problem this year. I’m using more now. Maybe not enough in the boxes.

[@kentuuri8272]

@True North Living yeah I was lucky to have a big beaver quota to use as bait too.
