How to Snare Beaver

[@jmath2596]

I love snaring beavers. Good video and you explained it very well.

[@TheStonedstone]

I would rather say I hate these pests and I have to eradicate them

[@crittergetter5045]

Just want to thank you for all the time you spend sharing your knowledge. I have learned so much from your videos. I became a liscensed trapper here in indiana because there is such a demand for removing nuisance beaver. I use all of you methods, and they all work. Thanks again. P.S. trapperJ was referring to you today, you must have taught him a thing or two as well!

[@jamesswick7534]

Multitalented trapper! The best with body grips and just as good with snares!

[@dkjphills79]

Nice catch. Congratulations

[@linklesstennessee2078]

Good catch 330

[@BoxieOutdoors]

Thanks for this one, talk about timing I was just about to search on this. I want to snare cause I have a big swamp that snares would be alot lighter to carry in

[@mauricehebert2839]

Great vedio love beaver trapping.to bad we can't get good money for it.but the Castors is worth it.I didn't go yet but waiting for ice.plus coyotes snaring. .I live in new Brunswick canada super warm weather.but yes super vedio will sure check more out

[@GeorgiaTrappingandFishing]

[@floydarcand8120]

[@lucasjohnson5419]

Good work! Great video!

[@dredger9mm]

Good goin'. I've got some snares ordered, and am lookin' forward to tryin' 'em out in SW Idaho.

[@robanderson2296]

It's a freakin miracle! That hilarious.

[@JimHenderson70]

Them B.A.D are not that bad an idea at all , if anything they really let the snare hang really nice ....

[@OutdoorExperiences]

Super cool!

[@MeeLowTrapper]

Question: I heard you like the cam locks but what would be the specs/dimensions of your preferred beaver snare? Thanks for any info and keep up the awesome videos.

[@drewcrawford2945]

I set a ton of Hail Mary sets😆. Can't get em if ya don't try. Keep the great vids coming and be safe✌️

[@MatthewJessOutdoors]

👍👍👍

[@garysaewert803]

One guy said 14 gauge wire which can work but it is actually 16 gauge wire. Some guys call it stove pipe wire or rebar wire. If you double it up, it works great for anchoring as well.

[@jtb81100]

I think this is the first beaver snaring video I've ever seen. Is this more a last resort thing for ones who are already trap smart? In my situation they would be much easier to run then 330s and footholds, but I hadn't seen any info on it before this.

[@330Maniac]

Or if you gotta go way back into someplace that is not very accessible you can carry a lot and they are light

[@jerrodhankins2676]

Congrats on a nice beaver. Does the snare leave a mark on the inside of the hide like if you were to snare a raccoon?

[@330Maniac]

I'm honestly not sure. I don't think that they would as long as it were under the ice. They would expire pretty fast then

[@kyraleigh9816]

Yes it does snare will leave a mark on leather

[@SlayermikeFishingandMORE]

Wynona took her big brown beaver and she stuck him up in the air, said "I sure do love this big brown beaver and I wish I did have a pair. Now the beaver once slept for seven days And it gave us all an awful fright, So I tickled his chin and I gave him a pinch and the bastard tried to bite me. Wynona loved her big brown beaver And she stroked him all the time. She pricked her finger one day and it occurred to her she might have a porcupine.

[@TheFishleclair]

14 Gauge Wire , Hail marry sets are the best, I tell my helper that if you don't take a shot you will miss 100% of the time so set where ever and lots, If ya got the traps lay em out.

[@northcountrytrapper]

Hey good video! Question, have you found a decent pair of chest waders that actually last a little while?

[@330Maniac]

Nope. Unfortunately. Maybe a season

[@rgorski1215]

I have always been super interested in trapping but never known where to start. Would you recommend starting with snaring?

[@330Maniac]

Yes, absolutely

[@rgorski1215]

@@330Maniac awesome thanks for the reply and the videos

[@TalksWithRyan]

Do you record everything on a go pro? Also if so does a go pro record video in portrait mode? Great videos man .you should get you an affiliate link for go pros you advertise them pretty well .

[@330Maniac]

I do!

[@TheStonedstone]

Would a snare work as a drowning set for beaver?. Atatched to a wire, L shape lock and concrete block?

[@330Maniac]

Yes, I have done this before in a few situations

[@TheStonedstone]

@@330Maniac Thanks. I have to replace my old rusty one long spring foothold. I've set drowning set with it and next day trap was sprung but beaver has escaped. Trap was removed about 1m .

[@PopPopJoe]

How long are your T bar stakes? They look pretty long.

[@stevejaeger8148]

How far from bottom does the snare sit??

[@330Maniac]

maybe an inch or so

[@66bigbuds]

You can't use kill snares?

[@krishogue7619]

How can you tell how many beaver are in a location?

[@330Maniac]

It's an educated guess

[@jacobherrmann8140]

Another great video. Too bad it is illegal to use snares in NY.

[@dredger9mm]

The way things are going, "legal" is quickly going out the window. Especially when it comes to feeding the family.

[@FinehomesofNewHampshire]

@@dredger9mm correct. I bought 48 snares for that reason alone. Stsy safe. Going off the rails fast

[@dredger9mm]

@@FinehomesofNewHampshire If you haven't already, you should check out the Meat Trapper on youtube, and even better, on Patreon. :)

[@rangepro]

Outstanding >>>beaver hid worth $6? ....keepem coming!

[@timmayer8723]

JD $6.00 for a. Beaverpelt. ??? I wouldn't bother to hunt them

[@Beavertrapper]

Who cares what there worth it’s about more than a paycheck you either love it or ya don’t

[@330Maniac]

The pelts really aren't worth much but castor is worth around 100 dollars a pound

[@dredger9mm]

Food on the table is worth a snare.

[@rangepro]

@@timmayer8723 go check the market where they sell them, you will see!

[@icarusburning2208]

Stupid MN elected officials. Now I have to buy break away devices to trap beaver that are going to drown??? I guess I'll need to take my AR14 out there as well in case a bear-wolf tries to trap me on the ice. Keep up the good work, caught my first few beavers because of you, coming from the range, MN.

[@fullsendeverythingoutdoors6577]

Anybody got any old foot holds or 330s they want. To sell trying to get into trapping without spending to much money

[@johnpaschal3217]

I know at gun shows they usually have old shit cheap. I believe in minisota they have like auctions with tables and tables of old traps cheap.

[@ericdavis3736]

If you look up fur buyers on youbute snares hurt the fur prices a lot.

[@330Maniac]

I get full price for my pelts all the time. That's a myth. Fur buyers just use that excuse to pay you less for your hard work. Don't let them fool you.

[@kyraleigh9816]

Have you ever tanned a snared pelt it definitely dosnt turn out the same the snare mark affects the end product for sure

[@330Maniac]

@@kyraleigh9816 Under ice beaver there isn't any damage. They struggle for just a bit and that's it. No marks. Any other animal that doesn't drown immediately has marks because they sit for hours in the snares and struggle

[@bowhunter9288]

Most of the time I feel like all my sets are hail Mary's. Lol

[@andymcqueen3553]

Same thing for me, I’m convinced that hail Mary’s are what you learn from.

[@davelee3725]

With a very expensive car

[@330Maniac]

What? Lol

[@robanderson2296]

looks like 14 gauge wire to me.

[@ericdavis3736]

Looks like baleing wire

[@jimmyboy5597]

So jealous of you.

[@randyvelliquette9251]

You talk too much. Get to the trapping

[@330Maniac]

This is a learning channel. Gotta talk to teach

[@randyvelliquette9251]

Yeah I'm sorry it was a good video you did I'm 72 and cranky
