Conibear Schol Episode 2 How to Set and Stabilize Conibears

[@parrotbill]

Are you shooting for the best trapping tutorials in the land, because you are most certainly doing it. You leave nothing to guess about, it is all here for anyone to see. Folks...Don't forget to click on the Meat Trapper's ads, all this info is more than worth a click when you have a chance.

[@Meattrapper]

Thanks my friend - I appreciate that! Every click helps and it doesn't cost anything.

[@parrotbill]

The Meat Trapper You got that right. Just when I thought you covered everything on trapping, you post three more videos. If anyone goes hungry after watching your videos, it is their own darn fault.

[@circle4922]

I'm enjoying learning about this, and these videos are great.

[@tramontane3239]

You are providing a public service by providing responsible information.First class presentation.

[@mostardentlyasmr4777]

Beginner trapper here. I started looking for advice for my attic squirrel invasion. I safely set my 110’s and still have my fingers. Thanks for your videos, you’re a great teacher!

[@FrederickDunn]

This was a very helpful demonstration. I have a HUGE woodchuck issue, and this is going to be very helpful. Thumbs UP, thank you.

[@jamesswick7534]

I've watched many trapping videos and have been doing a little trapping for 2 years and this is by far the best teaching video on conibears. Very well done and clearly explained

[@Meattrapper]

Thank you very much.

[@Tomadair1]

That external safety on its own makes this video worth its weight in broken fingers,I did not know such a tool existed, thank you very much sir.

[@Meattrapper]

lol - yep. I had to learn the hard way. A Belisle 220 crushed my finer. Nerve damage that resulted in numbness or over a year. I still have a curved finer as a result. A ten dollar safety would have prevented a lot of medical bills and a lot more misery.

[@WildernessMedic]

Me either. Already got my fingernail good in a brand new 110

[@rickgibbs6471]

OUTSTANDING TUTORIAL!!!! GREAT JOB!

[@scottwilson6614]

Awesome video! I have a raccoon and groundhog (and deer!!) infestation. Just bought a Duke 220 body trap, safety gripper, set tool, and a KB body trap stabilizer. Nothing comes with instructions and I'm totally unfamiliar with these devices. I got the trap set ok but the KB stabilizer had me stumped......until I watched your video. Even though you did not demo this stabilizer, once I saw the methods you did go over, I instantly got it. Thanks so much, just subscribed.

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

it was dang good - liked and now i'm watching pt-3 !

[@ryandotson243]

Thanks for doing all your videos I learn so much from your point of view!

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

thats a vg yellow safety pin... i'm gonna buy one of those.

[@JJRSURVIVAL]

Nice one mate , great video, i got some of these BMI bodygrip traps coming for christmas , but in the UK we have to set them in tunnels or boxes , but still a very interesting video , thanks

[@donjackson8816]

Thank you for the help. I need a lot of teaching. Keep up the fantastic work. Don

[@Meattrapper]

+Don Jackson No problem. Glad they are of value. If I skip anything or leave something out just let me know.

[@TwoFeatherChannel]

Love the different ways to keep it standing. I had great success with the Pole and 2x4 Block on Single Spring 110. The only drawback I had with the 2x4's is the limited room in my backpack carrying all the sets. I will try some of the professionally made screw in stands like you had.

[@Meattrapper]

+TwoFeatherChannel Yep the 2x4's are bulky and the bricks are heavy. One trick is to try and pre place them ahead of season. You can hang them from trees to keep them from getting washed away in the off season. In the old days, a trapper could leave his traps hanging from trees all year and nobody would steal them. Times have changed. Take care sir and thank you for watching.

[@nationalistcanuck2877]

Some great scholing bro

[@michaelmason7819]

Am looking forward to watching more. Thank You. Very useful video. a

[@Larry342516]

Thanks for the lesson. Much appreciated. Take care.

[@Meattrapper]

+Larry342516 No problem sir. Glad it was useful!

[@willyd1127]

Another excellent video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@motonut4503]

Great instructional video, you are a blessing for those of us who are trying to get into trapping, I have coyotes coming after my dogs and coming out of my property and to my back and front yard constantly for the past year ( they used to stay out in my woods and fields that wasn't a problem) but they have been coming after dogs, can you make a coyote trapping video? There are some online but you are very clear to understand and follow your video.

[@Meattrapper]

I have had a lot of requests for that. I am not a big coyote trapper, although I do catch some. I'll be heading back out for another trapping trip in a few weeks and I'll see what I can do. Thank you for watching and thanks for the encouragement. After making videos for almost 5 years, ya get to where you think nobody is watching them anymore. I appreciate the kind words.

[@TehLexinator]

Very useful videos. Thank you.

[@ImASurvivorNThriver]

This was REALLY GREAT! I look forward to the next one. Thanks for sharing. :-)

[@Meattrapper]

+Wolf Travels2 Thanks buddy - I appreciate that!

[@scottsgonehunting]

I love the videos and when you say what to buy. I am new and just want to buy the good correct stuff. It would help me if you added links to the description such as where to get your yellow saftey and the clips stabilizer what die and wax to use for the suthernssnares etc. The amazon link isn't working.

[@hiramhaji7813]

Great video

[@NSTRAPPERHUNTER]

Awesome video and thanks for sharing with us. Later and all the best.

[@Meattrapper]

+NSTRAPPERHUNTER Thanks for watching and have a great evening up there!

Thanks!

[@theamerican7131]

Great video. Thumbs up.

[@Joe_Goofball]

Hello, again! At my age, I don't have the hand strength to set the larger (220 and 330) Conibears. I own them, but they're not really useful at this point. Is there a tool of some sort tnat will work? I bought one that looked like a reconfigured caulking gun made from cast aluminum, and it broke the second or third time I used it. The 330's are too big even for that tool. Also, the catalogs I have (Montgomery and Dakotaline) don't seem to carry the safety you have to keep traps from springing prematurely. The cheesy aluminum ones I got from Sportsman's seem to work okay, but yours looks more reliable. Where can I get any or all of this tooling? What part numbers or part names should I search out?

[@Meattrapper]

+Leonard Urban Hi Leonard, you can get the safety pin safety from FNTPost at www.fntpost.com/Products/Body+Grip+Trap+Safety+Pin . They are my preferred vendor. Always had great service for them. The cheap aluminum ones won't even fit a Belisle 330. The yellow one is by far the best I have ever used. As far as setters go - stay tuned. The next video in this series will be on using pans with conibears; and then the final video in the series will be on setters, self rescue, etc. Hopefully that final video will be of help. Great questions and thank you very much for watching and commenting.

[@Joe_Goofball]

+The Meat Trapper Thanks, Bud! I'll be staying tuned!

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

The Meat Trapper : please tell where i can buy that yellow overhead conibear safety? i've looked everywhere - i don't see any like that one? watched again and thank you!

[@schinderberg3394]

Hey beeing from Germany it’s not soo easy to get all the bits one needs for trapping, compared to the US. I‘m really interested in that yellow safety tool you have there. Can you tell where you got yours? Maybe have a link to vendor/ebay/Amazon?Regards. Tubal

[@loganbramstedt6355]

Another great video

[@Meattrapper]

+Logan Bramstedt Thank you.

[@davidhanson2379]

Can you share where you got that yellow safety?

[@Meattrapper]

+David Hanson I bought mine from fntpost.com at www.fntpost.com/Products/Safety+Grips/Body+Grip+Trap+Safety+Pin . It really is worth $10. After my injury - I would have paid a hundred bucks to have had it - but it's too late after you get hurt!

[@davidhanson2379]

+The Meat Trapper Thanks!

[@charlesmarlonjohn6809]

Você é o melhor, cada vídeo é uma aula

[@WildernessMedic]

Really appreciate your videos. Do you use gloves for scent control when you are actually trapping, or do you think it doesn’t matter?

[@Meattrapper]

It does not matter - they know you have been there as you leave scent as you walk, kneel, etc.

[@REAPERMILITIAOUTDOORS]

Great information. 👍🤘👊

[@markbushinski5966]

can you set the trap right over the woodchuck hole and will it still work the same?

[@Meattrapper]

Mark Bushinski yes.

[@deanullerich1622]

how can I buy one of the "External Safety" pin? everyone talks about and external safety pin but I don't know where to get them.

[@inthemwoods523]

Got a video using 110s for rabbit?

[@MeeLowTrapper]

Hi Meat Trapper. I have a question about those "Stakealizers". In your video it looks like the jaws were above the ground 1"+. Do you leave the trap jaws a inch or so above ground, or do you push the trap/stakealizer flush to the ground? Thanks for any info.

[@Meattrapper]

The idea is to have the trap at the animals head height so they enter the trap without bending down or climbing up. Hope that helps.

[@MeeLowTrapper]

@@Meattrapper That helps greatly. Thank you and thank you for taking the time to make videos like this. It really helps us young and green trappers.

[@trapperstrailsandtales4657]

[@azariychugunov3370]

Nice hardware to stabilize traps. Where to buy ?

[@Meattrapper]

www.southernsnares.com/products/mb-coni-brackets

[@lyliah2008]

the best vidios i have ever see on how to set traps . we need more of this not so much showing animals in traps

[@Meattrapper]

+lyliah2008 Thank you very much. My hope is to introduce more people to get involved in trapping rather than try to show off the catch. If you ever have any questions, requests or if something is not clear - just let me know. Thanks!

[@GF_Burke]

I'm not sure how you are opening that 220 with your hands.. lol. Idk. I'm not a weakling, but the 110 is hard enough. Maybe because mine are all new. Is there a difference in opening if they are well used vs new?

[@Meattrapper]

They'll soften up a little over time, the secret is to use your body weight, not arm strength!

[@jsparlin1]

why not use .5 square tubing instead of rebar for your stabilizer? should work

[@thechristiantrapper3692]

Hey is there a way I can stake down a snare with rebar?

[@Meattrapper]

I would only do that if the snare allows the animal to tangle up and choke out. I'd be afraid the animal could pump the stake.

[@thechristiantrapper3692]

The Meat Trapper what about beaver? I am pretty sure they will not die from a snare.

[@Meattrapper]

Ohio trapper Yes I have staked beaver, I just try to make sure the stake is staked high on the bank so they are pulling downwards.

[@a234633]

Any one know of a good book that is more conibear trapping i have snaring for survival looking for someone if no internet I have a the info

[@michaelbaker9746]

[@sitattle5973]

Do you ever eat opossum?

[@Meattrapper]

+Redfish Runner Not on a regular basis, but I have. I am planning a video on cooking possum for later this year. If you have a good recipe let me know.

[@sitattle5973]

+The Meat Trapper I like mine with sweet potatoes.
