I never thought of using ungulate hair for bait and scent but it makes sense. Good visual lure as well

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Thanks for subbing. 150 thats great, we havent seen those prices in 6 years, i hope it holds 👍

[@howardlashbrook8500]

I love watching what you do. Thank you for the mini vacation. Do you ever catch birds in your traps? I wish I would have gotten into trapping, a lot of work but worth the experience. Stay safe and I will patiently wait for your next video.

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Oh yeah its our pleasure to share. If we set more marten pole sets well get more bird catches. But most people dont like to see that part here on youtube. Thanks for watching and God Bless

[@ScottDore-jn3nf]

I once saw a silver colored fazed red fox oh man it was so pretty it was black with silver colored guard. Hairs so pretty would be a great mount or a wonderful hat /coat trim

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

[@AlKryzanowski]

Love the video, especially the wolf trap set. Which set for wolves are you most successful with, trail set, bait set, etc.

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

@@AlKryzanowski thanks for watching 👍. The most successful would prolly be an even split between trap and snares. Also the same between baited areas and unbaited, they are so random. When you think you got it down they switch it up. Thats why its good to have all kinda of sets put out for the wolves in our area. Every wolf seems to have sets that they are trained on and stay away from

[@kingslew1866]

Thanks EG! Enjoying your vids from coastal Oregon. Did you ever catch up to that bear that was tearing up the nets? 🙃

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

@@kingslew1866 awesome! I just subbed your channel. Yeah we got one on video. And another larger one that we didnt get any video of. Bear hunting can happen so fast theres not to many we get on video.

[@kingslew1866]

@@enigmaticgwichin1630 Hey! Thanks for the sub! We don't have brown bears down here, but I've shot a bunch of black bears. Black bears ain't too scary, I even had one young sow pop out into my trail just a couple feet away and when her cub popped out of the brush behind her and she turned around and saw me she just put it in gear and left the country, leaving the little bear too catch up as best he could. They sounded like a herd of elk crashing down through the timber... I really enjoy your channel and look forward to your vids... Jerry 🙃

Hello from the netherlands what are the costs for a lyncs or a marten that ar nice animals in jour bautiful country and one good video

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

Hello, the prices can vary between each animal. I could only hope for $60 for the marten and $80 for the lynx. There have been years where the lynx and marten are at $100 a piece. Thanks for watching 👍

What sort of survival gear do you carry with you if any? I at least try to have a lighter in my pocket

[@enigmaticgwichin1630]

@@BackcountryAlaska Hi dude, yeah ive got lighters and matches on me and in my bag and box under the seat, also lighter fluid and a couple fuzees (road flares). Prolly 3 extra pairs of gloves. 2-3 pairs of wool socks, 1 or two pairs of boots or canvas boots. A couple mountain houses, an MRE, water in a thermos, tea in another thermos. Extra mags, face masks and hats, jet boil, extra thick sweater, candy, chocolate, backup glasses, snowshoes at least two different hudson bay axes, folding saw, canvas tarp, extra snow machine belt, secondary clutch spreader, 1-2 quarts of oil. Wire cutters, lineman pliers, couple rolls of tie wire. Tie down straps. 550 paracord and thicker rope. Small jumper pack for the snow machine battery. Depending on the cold, a sleeping bag and parka. There are prolly a handful of different things in missing in the crazy runon sentence above but yeah i think i hit on most of it

[@BackcountryAlaska]

@ right on!! Pretty hard to kill a skidoo four stroke with a spare belt, oil and a jump pack you should be covered! Maybe a can of red heat, just in case you get some bad gas. Good luck this season 🤘🏻👍🏻

Do you buy or make your lynx/wolverine lure?

We usually buy our lures, except on high lynx years we can make a urine lure that works really well. Wolverine here will shy away from any lure and even pure beaver castor. Wolves will as well. I do need t on make an order. Thanks for watching and reminding me, God Bless
