I like the wolf snares around the 330. I often throw up random snares close to other sets, but I like how you have a trail around the outside and through the trees.

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

The wolves around me are very weary of 330 so snare or traps near them can work great. Thanks for watching and have a blessed season out there 👍

[@totallossmac5079]

When you showed the firewood i was just reminiscing about howni was never skunked on the trap line because i still got a load of wood each trip

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Years ago when running the line with 2 stroke snow machines we would do that to pay for gas money. With the 4stoke gas milage now i dont have to do that much anymore. Thanks for watching and God Bless

What are they paying for marten and wolves these days? Really enjoy your videos you've got a great attitude!!

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Marten were around 60 last winter, and wolves range from 150-500, depending on how prime the pelt is.

Thanks for watching and commenting we really appreciate it 👍

[@AlKryzanowski]

Another great video! Have you kept track of how many wolves, wolverine, and lynx you have caught?

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Thanks! I have done a really bad job of keeping track but i could put together some numbers some time. Ill look at some e pictures, thanks for asking

Peak Refuel freeze dried meals. Those things are Money!

[@mountainedge4418]

love to learn from you

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

👍 any questions at all just let me know. Thanks for watching

[@cerealkillerjigs]

Since you run a decent length trap line, are check times daily or 48 hours depending on the trap. I know in the 3 states I trap footholds are 24 hours but conibears/snares are 48 and that 48 is depending on the weather and if slippage will occur.

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

There is no mandated check time where we are. After years of trapping everybody here runs their line once a week. Most of my catches happen 5-7 days after a check. Were in starvation country and the animals are very cautious. If a snow machine drives on part of my trapline, it actually ruins my chances of catching something there. If something freezes here in the beginning of trapping season “november 1st” it will stay frozen until the end of march. As long as small animals dont get to the fur the worst would be drying feet that make it a bit harder to skin. I would never want to wait longer than it takes for any fleas to die off, but thats mostly a lynx problem. Thanks for watching and writing

[@philipwolf1556]

I like venison meatloaf sandwiches , an hour before you want to eat put it inside your coat and it warms right up.great video thanks

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Nice! Its always nicer eating warm food. Thanks and have a good one

[@scottsnowedin]

Do any of your animals have fleas you have to worry about, if so how do you handl it? Thanks for the great videos, keep it up

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Most lynx have fleas, only seen then on maybe 1 or 2 wolves and never on a wolverine. So back in the day everybody used to”Buhack” but they dont sell it in the usa anymore. We hang the lynx for about 2 weeks and its usually long enough for the fleas die off, also mosquitoe spray can work if it comes in direct contact. Thanks for watching and God Bless

[@scottsnowedin]

@enigmaticgwichin1630 sounds great. Thanks for the reply

How warm are your summers there? I usually eat granola bars, nuts, jerky when in the wild.

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

This last summer maxed out the thermometer at 120 in the sun and around 105 in the shade. Here in the yukon flats the temps are extreme on both ends, thanks for watching and have a great day

[@franciskelley2248]

What snowmobile do you use ? What’s the back up plan If you break down 20 miles out ?

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

This is a 2020 Skidoo Skandic 600 ace. I have an inreach and the gear to either walk back or stay in place. Also because of these videos people know where i trap, lol. Thanks for watching and for the questions 👍

[@quaileggsvermont]

You should make another channel for skinning! More work for you, but maybe a hit? I would watch it.. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Yeah i do need to make a second channel. Thanks 👍

[@franciskelley2248]

Since it severe cold condition , do the furbearers seem to notice the human scent and smell of steel ? Retired from trapping now, but here in Illinois I made my sets very sanitary!

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

@@franciskelley2248 hello, they definitely can smell any human scent, steel, exhaust from the snow machine. But just like people every animal is different with different attitudes or fears toward smells. Lynx and marten dont care about smell as much as wolves, wolverine, and fox.

[@51spook70]

so what is the average kms or mile put on a trip around your trap sets?

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

This season it was fairly short at 24 miles, some years one line will be 30 miles and a couple shorter lines from 7 miles to as short as 5. Not sure how long this years will be, depends on how it looks out there. Thanks for watching, God Bless

[@51spook70]

@@enigmaticgwichin1630 your territory looks quite flat, we have mountains, with lots of creeks and lakes in central british columbia, doesn`t get below 20 below anymore, since Mt St Helens blew up 1981. Summer time it used top get up to 120F and now we change to metric and it doesn`t get to 40C.

Hello, The season started on the 1st of november, but we wait for the fur to get to its prime so after thanksgiving well hopefully start

[@ChristopherKoehler-p3s]

What does each fur pay you?

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

It varies wildly between each species and from fur to fur. Theres not much money in trapping anymore which is why there are very few active trappers left out here. Thanks for watching.

[@kyle8370]

Not too much link around?

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

There are a few but with the lynx prices so low we were not trying to catch them yet. Sounds like this coming season might be the first in a few years well be trying to put some up. Lord willing
