[@Williamthebadger]

now i remember who you are. loved your show and am very happy to have founf you,i will paint my traps soon!!!

[@diejestor]

Thanks for another great video. It's been interesting watching your gear and methods evolve over time. I have learned and incorporated a lot from your teachings, and it has made a noticeable difference in my comfort and confidence as a back country camper. I hope to attend some of your courses in the future. Thank you for all of the hard work that you do. Best wishes from Ontario, Canada.

This video series is amazing I live here in Florida and snares are one of the most versatile trapping tools to use out hear in the everglades

[@Hawkings74]

I'm never gonna trap or hunt anything in my life, but I still watch all of the videos along with any thing else on this channel. I think its because that you have a way of explaining things that causes me to see things in more then one way, combined with an ability to break things down to the core essences, while keeping it together as a whole. ( If that makes any sense ) I thank you for the time and effort you put into making these videos.

[@Livingingrace]

Hey Dave, my family and I have started watching your videos since seeing you on Discovery. Love and appreciate every single one,,thank you and please keep them coming..God Bless!

[@jonahwalker7717]

Man love these videos! When I get home from school I always check for these great videos. Keep the modern trapping videos coming Dave!

[@EatCarbs]

Interesting video Dave.. Thanks! I am enjoying watching this series.

[@virginiacopeland108]

Thanks for all the info you've given to all of us! Clark and Virginia

[@davidlee8551]

Thank you for passing on valuable knowledge!

Not every animals has the same eyesight capability. Some see fixed objects poorly which are not in motion regardless of the color. Others can easily see shiny objects. Still others see a monochrome or two color visual scene so that the true colors are irrelevant. It is even possible some animals may see into colors humans cannot see. Many insects and some birds are known to see four primary colors, not three. Basically there is no one size fits all when it comes to blending in traps or snares but in general using any dull colors that cover the reflective shine on new traps or snares is the right way to go. It's pointless to debate what colors, patterns, or camo designs are the best. There is no "best" and to the extent that flat black knocks off reflective shine it too isn''t half bad.

[@ramunes117]

u have a really great voice i could listen to u talk all day haha great vids love um

[@outNtheshawnee]

Great video Dave, I was wondeing what to do with conibears. Now I know thanks alot! Look forawrd to more videos.

[@llshamelessll]

Now thats just too easy....thanks Dave. Franks and Beans!

[@RandRGame]

KEEP IT UP DAVE!!!!! Watch all your videos!

[@Outdoorsman1515]

come back when you have a tv series watched by millions (including me) and when you know everything about survival and nature...Dave knows what he is talking about

[@Rustyone4u2]

Hi Dave...great vids...I noticed you have a safety lock on your spring when you sprayed them...the S shaped device...i ordered mine and didn't get that. I was wondering if that was something you did for the paint job or if the conibear came with them???? Thanks again Dave....great Vids and I'm learning a lot from you. Rusty

[@glynnellis5050]

Thank you Dave.

[@GneissShorts]

Yes! Just in time before I go camping in the Sierras! Mom doesn't think I can do it, and me being me, I want to prove her wrong!

[@wildreliance]

Nice, on a similar note I did the same thing to my sons Crosman air rifle, didnt need to but it looks cooler.

[@MidwestWoodcraft]

Awesome video Dave. Thanks once again!

[@jstnfshr]

Don't know why so many people are attacking you but you're right, shadows are black. Shadows do occur in nature. Like the shadow inside the shelter on the right side of the video. There's also plenty of black animals that blend in quite well. & many animals with black markings for camouflage, too many to name actually. Flat black would definitely be better than glossy black, though. But Im not just agreeing to be argumentative, I still think Dave's the man, and highly appreciate all his vids!!

[@jezus92191]

would it be a good idea to use white for winter sets? or just do the brown and green for a bigger variety of places to put them

[@phenixphawkx7157]

inspirational work as always

[@ArmsDealer06]

I think you need to focus more on zombie-proofing the campsite. Maybe suspend tin cans from strings or tripwires etc. Thanks, great channel.

[@jasonthielman]

Actually night is more dark blue. Don't believe me, dress someone all in black head to toe on a dark night and then dark navy blue, the black stands out in the dark, the navy blue blends in much better.

[@GWHcraig1088]

these traping vids make we want to get into traping for myself

[@97adog]

Hey Dave do you still recommend fishing leaders as snares from your discount Bushcraft videos

[@BigHickory357]

Thanks for the info. This video answers a ? I had on a previous video of yours

[@97adog]

Do u still recommend using fishing leaders like u did in your discount bushcraft seris

[@bushmasterm17]

what is better painting or dyeing the traps and snares

[@quentinrox2663]

Love the video Dave. Can I get your email so I can ask you some trapping questions? I want to spend 5 days or so trapping for the first time with a friend.

[@tinydx95t2]

By locking the springs in the set position won't that weaken the springs prematurely?

[@mountainwalk1169]

Hey Dave painted my.110s and the paint scratched off after it went off in solution to that?

[@Rodneydncn]

My conibears keep rusting and it slows them down to a crawl. Any way to prevent that or did I get some cheap crap conibears?

[@Ali.N147]

will this spray paint prevent rusting?

[@SoleSam23]

so i can do this in place of dipping in the gas stain mixture

[@SIOSpawn]

how many times would you say i could set up a snare or trap on the same game trail? i mean if i catch or snare an animal on the first setup?

[@quentinrox2663]

Thanks brother!

[@Outdoorsman1515]

what about the scent of the paint...a fox or yote will smell it from a mile away

[@HmongGuitarPlayer]

At night what color is that?And is it natural?

[@northof50now]

Dave, I was always told most game is color blind [exception is turkey]. Any truth to that?

[@cheeselyman]

what animals are the snares you sell ideal for?

[@FacetsOfTruth]

Actually, everything and everyone is pitch black. ALL color comes from the light source. LOL Just messing with you. Thought it's true. Love your videos Dave. I bought some 110 Connibears (per your advice), now I have to paint them. Thanks Bud!

[@TheKodiak72]

what if your life depends on it?

[@wdcsucks1]

but very very dark things like: caves, the night, burnt wood, black panthers, dung beetles and other insects, scorpions, crows and more and more :)

[@killer17751]

what about black bear

[@onyo101]

It should he was using a rust prof paint in the video

[@kejatz]

Nice!

[@CPLBSS88]

so i think you accidently said "green, black, tan"...did you mean to say brown?

[@18PunkDude]

dave your freaking awesome :) plz reply

[@GozonTheGonsarian]

you have offended many black bears and some penguins my friend. lol

[@pawelatut]

First off mom always knows best and second if you still got to prove things to your mom this might not be a very good idea. Know what I mean

[@jovotron]

My motherinlaw says she wants to eat your belt 0_o

[@hellohellohello111]

L, SHANA TOVA DAVE!!!!

[@NickCorreia9]

second

[@hopper055]

Black in this sense of the word is not typically considered a color, but rather the absence of color. Because of this it is debatable whether or not black is even a color.

[@GrimGearheart]

No black in nature? Are you joking?
