Modern Trapping Coyote in MB 550 and a reset discussion

[@RustyConibear]

Trapping is at the heart of what we stand for as woodsman and Americans. Let’s not forget it or let corporate policies change that. 👍🏼

[@justindawson3428]

Good to see someone not afraid to show these skills. Keep up the good work Dave.

[@JoeCohenVA]

Dave, I'm a disabled vet, trying to learn to tan and hide crafting. I would very much welcome any green pelts and I would certainly pay for next day shipping, How can we swap contact info? perhaps you can look me up in your SR store, I'm there.... thanks in advance. I am a loyal viewer that enjoys your sites,

[@SheepDogActual]

Joe Cohen disabled vet here too. I build log tanning stations. Good luck to you.

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

I think the motivation of starvation during cold times overrides a critter's instinct to survive. You can't survive on a hungry stomach. I suspect that they're willing to take more risks in harsher conditions. Their wariness factor drops at the promise of a seemingly easy meal. The yotes here are a LOT more visible this year according to my bud who's had several encounters with them. I hope they stay that way as I go from deer season to coyote season for me.

[@towerjokey]

Your a good man helping out the scouts!!! Thanks

[@adrockey]

Really like what you are doing with your furs. Great idea managing your property, not having to do the time consuming work and giving to others.

[@bhumble3106]

just a good ole boy. awesome video.Thank you for your time and wisdom.and most of all ...sharing.

[@bigracer3867]

"The best part of waking up, is a Coyote in your trap!" You have to sing it like the coffee commercial. :)

[@Smiling_mike]

Big Racer 😆

[@charlesdriggers199]

Sixteen people do not like this. If you knew the affects coyotes have on animals, to include pets , in your area. They are also known to be a threat to people when emboldened . You will not decimate them. You will control their numbers. .

[@DavidCanterbury]

They can all go home safe in the fact they will go to the market tomorrow and buy cellophane wrapped meat, and let someone else support them-

[@WayneTheSeine]

They have devastated our quail population as well as rabbit. Their number need controlling and as in the past thousands of years ...man plays his part as he always has. We are as much a part of this planet and ecosystem as anything else.

[@benjaminvanwey1385]

These people obviously dont depend on the meat from homegrown livestock.

[@littlesaintwilliamofnorwic8500]

@Modern Woodsman "But no, one eats the same quarry the Coyote does" I'm curious, what do you mean by this sentence? Is coyote generally not healthy or safe to eat?

[@adambilge2834]

@Paul Taylor Yes he has in past videos.

[@eugenejohnson8635]

You need more videos on trapping David 🥃🍺👍❤️✝️✝️✝️

[@michaeljohnson309]

I bring dry dirt in a bucket with me for covering the trap. Sometimes I’d get the dirt from under bridges.

[@userunavailable3095]

Thank you for doing this. Sheep, calves, dogs, cats, deer of all ages and many other creatures all the way down to mice will sleep better tonight.

[@jasonpettit9984]

Good to see you Dave,as always I appreciate your time and knowledge, thank you for sharing this with me

[@DixieLiving]

Great video clarity. Nice camera! Thank you for the instruction.

[@mathewhenderson5757]

Solid video. Great content for the community. Excellent period of instruction

[@billhatcher2984]

I would like to see how you release a bobcat I live in WV and have cought a couple of bobcats they're mean and just turning a house cat loose isn't any fun

[@DavidCanterbury]

Have a video in my Modern Trapping series on that already

[@SheepDogActual]

Love it Dave. Thanks for the advice. Have a lot of your books. I learn better by watching.

[@Stoney_AKA_James]

Well done Dave, management of YOUR property and local predatory animals at its best!!

[@ebony5766]

Great skills Dave. Land management is vital. Merry Christmas!

[@ralphlatorre203]

I don't trap but I love your trapping videos. I've learned enough to ask questions of the local trappers and know what they're talking about. In my area of Pennsylvania, trappers are more passionate than people who just hunt.

[@chrismurnin722]

I found the reason behind your trapping very informative. Not something that's huge in the UK but can relate to the land management side of it. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[@maxpinson863]

thanks for posting this video. I'm glad to see some new ones even though you already have others. any other new trapping videos would be enjoyed and appreciated, maybe some new trappers cabin ? always glad to see a new way of doing things

[@cotontop3]

Good video David, watched it from one end to the other. All great tips and like you said, you don’t have to have a large block of land to get out and do some trapping.

[@deanbraden7695]

I have trapped a few raccoons out by the chicken coop, and any I ever caught was in really bad shape with its trapped foot. How do you let these animals go with a broken foot? Does it sometimes not break their foot or do you just leave them to tough it out? From your experience how does that work?

[@stevemotley808]

Thank you fir donating the pelts to the boyscouts and first timers

[@geohomography5617]

Nice explanation of why you are trapping. Thanks.

[@sosteve9113]

Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones Greetings from a Belgian bushcrafter

[@abefrohman1759]

Merry Christmas Dave.

[@kassonsalvador3650]

Is the Shadow of Nessmuk series over? I was really enjoying that.

[@DavidCanterbury]

Not over yet brother, still have a few more to go, coming soon-

[@kassonsalvador3650]

Looking forward to it

[@Roman-lu1xn]

I wonder if there are trailcam videos of animals getting caught and missed ones to see how they interact with the set.

[@slickydicky]

Thank the lord! I was just thinking the other day I was hoping you would do more trapping videos. I'm getting ready to run my coyote line, I still have two or three more weeks in my local deer season so I'll continue to hunt to get meat in the freezer, after that its game on until spring against the coyotes in my area

[@justme4172]

You don’t feel the need to pack the dirt down tight around the trap and inside jaws?

[@shanek6582]

I caught one a couple weeks ago on only two toes but nothing else since but I’m only trapping a couple acres with 4 sets. Still, I did a lot better last year.

[@kylelee1911]

beautiful haul dave. i got a pretty nice bull elk this year. happy for a good year for the sportsmen out there

[@ravin747]

Is there still a market for Coyote Pelts?

[@Smiling_mike]

ravin747 yes, come to New Mexico.

[@FellsApprentice]

Educational and helpful Dave. Thanks for the video and Merry Christmas! Also, nice catch, that was a big, pretty looking coyote.

[@maxinpains6937]

What's the Coyote meat taste like ? Coz I won't catch anything that I won't eat .

[@WayneTheSeine]

How do you keep from catching something you don't eat? The pelt can be valuable....and useful.

[@adambilge2834]

Like Chicken.

[@John_14v6]

Dave has an older video on eating Coyote.

[@WELSBYROOTS]

Dave has a video where he eats some

[@garyminick1050]

Coyote taste like dog meat only tougher .

[@jeffreyjeffers156]

Great video! I agree 100% people get way way to hung up on fencing and scent. It's not as complicated as everyone makes it out to be along with baits and lures honestly most of it is a money racket it's all over priced the old timers didn't have all the crap we have to day and done just fine with.imo

[@garyminick1050]

We live just out of town about 5miles . At dark every evening from at least 3 different directions we hear packs of coyotes. Ive been told that if you cut their numbers back very far that the females will come into heat more often to replenish there numbers but get overpopulated for a time frame. Is that true ?

[@HundedeskriegesWV]

Dave, looks like those 550's only 2 coils? If so that is a mighty stiff trap for not being 4 coiled. Ever have any problems with Grey Fox or do you not target those much?

[@timothymusson5040]

Great video! It would be nice to see you release those different types of animals. How the heck do you deal with a bobcat? Our house cats are ferocious enough!

[@DavidCanterbury]

I have lots of release videos in my Modern trapping playlist

[@timothymusson5040]

David Canterbury I’ve only seen the possum one. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the point in the right direction!

[@trailtrashoutdoors8173]

I have a few traps but can't use them in my area :\

[@jacktapper7290]

Merry Christmas!🙏🇺🇸☃️🎄

[@riverstick8895]

Love the trapping videos!

[@dadawesome784]

How did you release the bobcat and fox alive from the trap? I’m sure they’re none too happy at the time and not likely to let you near them to open the trap....

[@DavidCanterbury]

I have several videos on this in my playlist

[@kodiak1142]

Are any of the bobcat catches duplicates? Reason I ask is because you seem to catch a few down there, and was wondering what kind of growing population we have in Ohio. Thanks

[@DavidCanterbury]

I dont think any are duplicates

[@kodiak1142]

@@DavidCanterbury good to here, means a healthy population is growing. Guess we will know in a few years when the study is complete. Thanks for the reply

[@kodiak1142]

yeah, sorry meant "hear" not here.

[@Dennis-rs1pl]

Have you ever thought about setting a trail camera so you can see the animal actually getting caught that might be a good teaching video

[@pederhalverson2591]

Love the Weatherwool, but I’m not used wool as my main over layer so now I need to wait for a fullweight to come in. Wisconsin is very open & extremely unforgiving. Ralph is a great guy to work with though thank god. Sadly, I’m seeing wildlife in neighborhoods that I never saw once in 30 years in the woods. “Progress” 😡😢

[@gregh1579]

Made all my Christmas money back in the early 80s with about 10 Victor foot hold traps. Mostly raccoons when you could get 20 or 30 dollars. Hopefully will pass that on to my three grandchildren.

[@carrdoug99]

Nice video Dave, thank you. Merry Christmas!

[@maritimespook]

WEATHERWOOL ARMY !!

[@cristianrivas7540]

What size is your weather wool cpo shirt jacket ?

[@userunavailable3095]

The now forty people who dislike it don't know how many times "Bambi" bites it in the jaws of a coyote.

[@jamesturner7728]

I did not see you take off the safety after that cayote reset

[@DavidCanterbury]

There are NO safeties on a MB550 what are you on about?

[@jonesysself-reliance3705]

I have never used pan covers I think people get very biased about the way they do things the whole (my dad told me!!! Or my grandpa told me!!!) But they dont think or try things themselves

[@MadDogSurvival]

Excellent as always sir! Thanks again for sharing! Very best wishes for Christmas to you and your family brother 👍🏽👍🏽😎🇬🇧🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👌🏽

[@howlerbushcraft342]

Very nice. Thanks for the knowledge

[@inmotion81]

I like the trap videos and the skinning

[@timross7046]

Are you using a 2 spring or a 4 spring mb 550 ?

[@dragonwaterforge]

You can release animals with these traps? Cool

[@DavidCanterbury]

I do it all the time

[@unwelcomeimmigrant2230]

What’s the camo pattern on your jacket???

[@DavidCanterbury]

Lynx

[@hacke999]

Glad I found the answer. I'm looking for that jacket.

[@WELSBYROOTS]

Yes! Love these video brother!

[@huntr4lfe]

Hey Dave, what kind of camo is your jacket?

[@DavidCanterbury]

Weather Wool

[@scottanthony1616]

Weatherwool

[@FiciousCritik]

Make America Great......................ALWAYS! MAGA stands unchanged. HD, V-vet Merry Christmas.

[@joshuashafer1545]

What camo is that

[@stanf9898]

The OG. I thought he fell off. Maybe it was just my viewership.

[@garageliving3658]

52 seconds it has flash of your face on the screen.

[@PantyhoseExperience]

Garage Living yeah I noticed that, I had to slow it down, must be a subliminal message 😅

[@dlvmark]

where is the turd?

[@DavidCanterbury]

Didnt have one handy

[@joshuashafer1545]

I am donating all my furs to a catches for kids program to my local trap supply guy he holds the event yearly gonna take my funds and buy traps for a door prize for the youth involved in the course

[@danielrandolph9170]

Good video & Merry Christmas to you and your family David stay safe

[@gregh1579]

Good video. God bless

Dave is the man!

[@jp9mm618]

What’s the point of trapping Killing coyotes?

[@gonehomewoodsman9059]

👍👍👍

[@anne-christinemarcou4481]

HAS A TRAP LIKE THIS CLAMPED ON SOMEONE'S FOOT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT FEELS LIKE?? SCHOCK PAIN PLUS KILL???!!!! PLUS VARIETY OF FOOLING BAITS??? OK ..UNDERSTAND PROPERTY MNGMT...ELIMINATION OF NATURAL BORN ANIMAL.....DANGER .. 'LORD SAID DO NOT DO UNTO OTHERS THAT WHICH YOU WOULD NOT LIKE TO BE DONE TO YOU!'...😢

[@DavidCanterbury]

Don't make the mistake of quoting scripture to me please, Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” "And a voice came to him, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.” And yes I have had my hands in these traps more than one time-

[@НАСТОЯЩИЙОХОТНИКиРЫБОЛОВ]

Поставил Дейву класс!!!

[@howlerbushcraft342]

Very nice. Thanks for the knowledge
