Trapping Tales 2015 Pt Three

another day in the wild north working the line and trpping fur bearers. more trouble with the not so trusty bravo

[@trappingworld6463]

Nice catches Andrew. Love the vids. Reminds me of when I was young. I envy you being out there.

[@Edenssunlight]

loving these videos been following for a while now. I truly do envy the lifestyle. Lived in Canada till the age of 30 now retired from the U.S. ARMY living in Florida and kinda hating it..lol keep up the great work and please keep posting because at least while I watch I can escape this place and in my heart and mind be up there..

[@RDM-fc6rd]

Trapping has been good for you so far. I hope it keeps up. Great video and channel. Thanks Ronnie,Texas.

[@SwampDonkey530]

These older videos are gold! the evolution of TWN...thanks A

[@elitebowman5386]

Congrats on the Lynx Andrew. If you are worried about ruts in the trail from your wheeler, tow a short log behind you or make a groomer it will smooth them ruts right out in the trail. Thanks for sharing the video's. Look forward to more.

[@waynekirkslope]

Helluva a way to start the season off Andrew. Nice looking cats!!

[@rickyboyz100]

That .17HMR is a handy dandy piece! I love mine for the groundhogs!! Stay safe!

[@zenpranks]

love your videos! I look forward to your uploads more than any of my other subscriptions.Keep them coming.

[@rukets]

Thanks for being back on KZbin, never wached Fur harvesters, this is the way to do it, you are the best. Waching you doing what you do I relive my childhood dream of trapping in the woods and it looks tough but lots of fun so please keep the vids coming, it is like fresh breeze from the north. Good luck!

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Fantastic video and set. Keep em coming brother. Cheers Moose from Oz.

[@Naughtz]

Lucky bugger you'd be one lucky guy to find a grouse sitting still for a headshot in southern Ontario. Pricks flush like lightning and you are lucky to take a wing shot before they disappear into thick brush in 2 seconds hahahha. Killer video man. Thanks for taking the time to record for us.

[@JustinC905]

I've only eaten moose once. Best meat I've ever had. I have family in Northern Ontario who hunt and trap. Also catch minnows. Wish I could do that one day. But I often find myself thinking of just heading out east in Nova Scotia to live instead of north. Great video, keep it up dude!

[@CliffManis]

thanks, and I always enjoy watching.... Cliff

[@zanelynxleg6366]

beautiful to see the lynxes your trapping good work love the videos

[@wallaceviviansadventures2095]

two nice lynx,the second one got nice spots on him.great catches.take care hope the bravo don't give much more trouble

[@KainOutdoors]

Man am I glad to see the trapline videos again. Great looking cats. Hope you get some freeze soon.

[@westendtrapper8536]

Great clip. Please keep them coming. I'm in BC. Having hard time with the marten, but the wolves are moving. 3 within 9 days. Hope you pull a few. Good luck

[@CliffManis]

Thanks watching again... love your videos,,,, cliff...

[@zechariahchilds9460]

Keep the videos coming! There's some beautiful country there.

[@williamsburghunter5319]

Man that opening shot Andrew, it's beautiful. Love watching that ice flowing. Looks like the season is going fairly well for ya.... except for that Bravo.

[@NSTRAPPERHUNTER]

A couple of nice cats there Andrew. Later and all the best to you and Charley.

[@NLGhostWolf]

another great day on the line for sure, You're bang-on about the mink, I love handling mink. Hope you get that old Bravo running good, because they great on gas and normally tough as nails.... But when a machine gets sick and don't get better, it might be time to light that tank. haha

[@carlspackler5013]

+NLGhostWolf If you go through those old sleds and fix them up right they are more reliable than the new ones but if you just keep putting band-aids on the problems you start to spend all your time doing minor repairs.

[@jacobtobeluk8447]

Great movies, I trap around my area too for beavers, and otters. My son also traps for mink which I think is cool. I'll be moving soon and wanting to try my hand on some lynx seems pretty easy to trap them. But watching movies and actually trapping them are two totally different things. The area where I'll be moving to isn't a very good place to go trapping I'll have to travel about 30 miles to start a trap line, and figure out who's trap line I might be stepping over to say.

[@theshadowpeople1493]

wow man you are one helluva trapped brother I have watched allot of them and you sure are the best thanks for shareing with us

[@Big_John_C]

Good shit Andrew! Looks like your season is off to a good start. Damn sleds are a pain in the ass

[@rodney12310]

Two nice lynx!! All the best the rest of the season!!!

[@punchtothemind7582]

Hahaha! The ending to this video is sooo awesome.

[@paulmckenna9492]

Ending comment is too mint ! "gonna drop a lit cigarette in the gas tank , and not look back "

[@scottcooneymusic6736]

I don't think I would ever get sick of eating grouse. Fuck I love those things. Rabbit too. Great eating.

[@nowone21]

Nice catches, beautiful. Is that the Savage you were using? Still like it? God bless you, hope your ice comes in soon.

[@TheWildNorth]

+Joan Sholl Francis yes it is a savage

[@nowone21]

+TheWildNorth It's on my wish list. Thanks Andrew.

[@tomm2812]

AS. I enjoy your videos. Have a good day. Best

[@zone3adk872]

Love the vids. Charlie is a one happy dog. If I die I want to come back as your dog or mine!

[@mushercdn]

Love the inukshuk by the river and the Alice Cooper poster in the shed! That first lynx looks more like a yearling than a kitten. Kittens, around here, are much smaller. I noticed you even had the rifle getting water. Bears that much of a problem? I appreciate the time you spend making these videos. They must be quite a lot of work to film and edit. Thanks. Be safe. If you torch the Bravo, which I wouldn't do. Film it. Yamahas are more reliable than BRP.

[@mmrtactical7764]

Good o'l bravo, let ya down when you need them most. They work great in the summer...LOL!

[@trapperstrailsandtales4657]

Awesome job on the cats Andrew ! Be safe out there bud. Migwech

[@PineislandBrian]

great video man! looking forward to the next one.......

[@Logjam5]

That river has got some pretty good flow to it.

[@TheWildYam]

Beautiful cats! Looks like you may have to use them to barter for a new snow machine soon.

[@TheWildNorth]

+TheWildYam i have a 4 stroke skandic super wide track but need a hell of a lot more snow to use it

[@TheWildYam]

+TheWildNorth Ya, and will cost more to run unfortunately. Hoping for more snow and ice formation your way. It has been too warm of a fall.

[@Grizzlife]

Nice cats wish we had them here. Enjoyed the living style, its the way my family rolls as well. Really nice set up. Good Luck and be safe in the bush bro! Happy trappin!

[@russwhite4446]

nice andrew thanks for the upload probably had the line slip off on that tank good luck w/it

[@GCRockymtns]

Congrats on the cats, still to warm out! Keep the vids coming bud!

[@shawnrobertrs4771]

Look like you're doing a dam good job on you're line keep up the good work

[@sargefaria]

Doing great bud, nice cats

[@Zvanamen]

awesome start of the season.

[@Alastair6]

Glad you're back, Andrew. So, more spots = more money?

[@TheWildNorth]

+Alastair Ingram thats what they say yes

[@patrickgermond2750]

A trick I learned in trade tech was to spray some carb cleaner into the air filter. It works on everything. especially lawnmowers. I used it to get my sled started yesterday. And it will not blow the head like either. I know it wouldn't work for this video though. lol

[@Homefarmhouse]

love the trapin tales man.. !!

[@Tossdart]

pull motor Andrew so you can get a good look. you can tap the stripped hole & put a heli coil in it.

[@SluSharkND]

Great video! Keep 'em coming!

[@Arfabiscuit]

Wonderful video .

[@gordonmiller4439]

Nice catches Andrew!

[@bobv8219]

Gas leak, pressurize the tank to see where it's leaking bro. Thanks bro fun shit man ,your quite skilled at trapping. I envy your lifestyle as I work in a big city for a big co. Maybe I'll come do that one day anyway thank you my friend

[@canuckjk]

awesome video Andrew keep it up

[@SwampDonkey530]

Gonna be a Bravo barbecue before too long..!!

[@pwrplnt1975]

Was that mink kind an odd catch for that set? I think it's time to retire that old Bravo. I remember those from the early 80's! Time to get you a good old Ski-Doo! How come you don't choke them out? I read an article about Lynx by Marty Moranno from the TV show mountain men. It was about Lynx and how rabbits play a huge part in their cycle of life. It was in Fur Fish Game, greatest outdoor mag ever!

[@SuperOlds88]

Charlie was looking the other way, a sure sign he sabotaged your Bravo. Doesn't want you leaving him.

[@CliffManis]

Nice big one, wow.... best to you...

[@superscaryeti]

another great video!

[@RatSleds]

Hey Andrew Right on your gettin a few good link ever try those power Foot snares? guess they work good too cause you can make a hanging chicken wing or rabbit fur set open cubby fast under a spruce tree...i guess the foot snares can be bigger in size for the foot easier to catch em by the paw bigger trigger less metal around however nothing wrong with a lock snare in a cubby set either the old way ! the old way seems to be way better and just as good and lynx dont last long in snare compaired to any other animal with out a power snare to boot! simple lock Snares are the best for LInk in my oppinion ...but heard when not on RTL u have to use power snares which is a big money grab if you ask me ,, ANYHow TRAP ON BROTHER!!! AND FUR IS COMING BACK IN A BIG WAY!!!! IN FASHION even on MUSIC AWARDS JLO WAS WEARING LOTS OF FUR HAAA! Good to see THE MARKET WILL ROCKET SOON!

[@peterpan58]

Sweet video all that's missing is a wolverine

[@TheWildNorth]

+peter pan that will come soon

[@geemeff]

Grreat video man!!!!!!!!!!! RIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!

[@charliemiller9024]

I'm from Pennsylania, United States and I go to Canada every year to go fishing and that view looks like it's from the river by the camp we go to. is that near Moffet?

[@alaskanhunter7622]

Hey Andrew seems like its still pretty warm up there, the River hasn't frozen yet? How's that affecting your trapping?

[@onaboatwithbryan9012]

Hi Andrew, I am a nube trapper I was wondering when you thaw out frozen fur, do you keep your fur shed heated 24/7 and do you get up at 2am to load wood or what

[@One.Step.ForwardYT]

Hey Andrew, love the videos, I've been following for a few years. Are the fur bags new this year? I don't remember seeing them in previous years. Also do you eat Lynx meat or is it strictly used for bait? Good luck this season, looking forward to the future videos

[@TheWildNorth]

+Langsta87 i got a bunch of them fur bags a few years back i eat lynx yes and charlie too but mostly use them for bait

[@Erated78]

Too bad about the Bravo, maybe the tank is cracked? or maybe the fuel line has slipped off of the supply nozzle? It is still worth looking into fixing in my mind cause she ran good until she wasn't getting fuel. All the best of luck buddy.

[@TheWildNorth]

+Erated78 oh yeah buddy ill have it running in no time it be a quick fix

[@robertdunlop1063]

Keep up the good work!

[@betoreimer4894]

hi there me and my buddy Nick are from Manitoba Canada or maybe Canada Manitoba but we watch your videos religiously and love them is there a way that we can get ahold of you to ask a couple of questions?

[@ugsisr]

What part of Canada are you in? How close is your closest town? great videos

[@Paid2Win]

Awesome video :D

[@E.lectricityNorth]

I was just wondering about the wolves when you brought them up. Do you have any coyotes around there as well? Sorry to hear about the Bravo. Maybe rename it the Boo! Great to see the trapping season get going--I really like your videos, thanks for putting together this series.

[@TheWildNorth]

+E. Lectricity theres a fey coyotes yes i get 1 or 2 a year

[@E.lectricityNorth]

Cheers!

[@rogermantor3564]

Awesome! Keep it up.

[@andreachevrier4590]

Make a huge firework out of it your skidoo, lol hope she's up and running you got a great channel here (y)

[@MrCrappule]

[@davemaximillion5501]

[@CliffManis]

Nice video.. be safe...

[@jaredgood9650]

How many grouse do you got so far this year. I'm in New Brunswick and got 14 so far

[@xapemanx]

[@ericrae2678]

i wanna live the way you do must be so peaceful love ur videos fuckin dope !!!

[@brianb2210]

Dude: You are the best. I love these videos. If your ever in Philadelphia hit me up dinner on me

[@nickdillon91]

Great ending to a great video. Did u get to harvest a moose this year Andrew?

[@TheWildNorth]

+nickdillon91 yes i did got 2

[@muskrat411]

nice lynx I better get going after some cats quick here. I have two lynx traps set but all I have caught so far is 2 rabbits and a whiskey jack. Musky had rabbit for supper today. Will you be attending that beaver starring course with Mark Downey in Hay River?

[@TheWildNorth]

+muskrat411 yes i will attend the workshop

[@muskrat411]

Cool sounds like a good time. I've been trying out beaver snares but the beaver keeps springing them and eating my bait sticks.

[@beaverrick9789]

+muskrat411 What the hell is a Whiskey Jack?

[@muskrat411]

I think they call it a grey Jay you see them flying around TWNs skinning shed on his videos. I did not mean to catch it.

[@muskrat411]

+BeaverRick Hey BeaverRick I'm out of the whiskey jack catching business one small beaver and a wolverine today! Me happy!

[@jamesgsmith5379]

Real nice spotted pelt there Andrew.Do you get many Mink?Old trail snare pays off bigtime again eh!!

[@TheWildNorth]

+James G Smith theres lots of mink around this year im gonna set more traps for them

[@tomkelly2641]

what do you think about a pet lynx

[@emcaraccioli]

Unlike Fox / Lynx , Lynx Cats have large strong razor sharp claws in both front and rear paws. The preferred method to subdue large felines is strangulation, with a catch / release pole / or compression, both of which are presently under fire from animals rights groups. Strangulation is the most humane, above shooting, in practice, however does present a real risk of mauling, attack , and or escape. Snaring with kill locks solves those issues.

[@TheWildNorth]

+Bigfoot Traps Snares yeah i have never used a snare pole on a lynx before i have clubbed them but never tried a snare pole

[@emcaraccioli]

I can no longer ship my products to Canada /// Bigfoot Snares have been banned /// restricted by Obama Administration into Canada, BC. We had several orders to BC. The last one shipped out 11/26/2015. Ebay Global Shipping program intercepted the 24 killer snares @$50 / and refused to ship them saying they are now restricted. Trouble is my client says her other orders from the U$ made it to her no problem !!! Apparently this is a brand new restriction on Global trade ??? Do you know anything ? Heard anything about this Andrew ?

[@ginelleaspinall7021]

the lynx dispatcher! ,ever come across any cougars?, and i dont mean the big hair,lotsa perfume type,lol..my yrs in fort smith ive seen 2 with my own eyes,once close up through binoculars, cannot mistake that massive tail

[@TheWildNorth]

+Ginelle Aspinall i have not but a guy at indian cabins was skinning one a couple years back i think i seen tracks once but couldent positively identify them.but yes there is a few in the area i would love to catch one in my trap

[@CliffManis]

Andrew, please tell us again where you are located, and thanks... cliff....

[@TheWildNorth]

Nwt canada

[@jmluc90]

Hey Andrew, truly enjoy your videos. (If I had one gripe it might be the language.) I was wondering, however, if you could do one favor. Could you post a video maybe 1 - 2 minutes long explaining the hierarchy of what you are hoping to trap? Like what isn't even worth your time or what's the holy grail of trapping? (besides a Yeti I mean lol)

[@TheWildNorth]

+jmluc90 ok buddy ill do that in a video

[@jmluc90]

+TheWildNorth I sincerely appreciate it :-) Btw, I'm enjoying your videos over here in the concrete jungle of Tokyo, Japan.

[@mrgoodiejr]

hey man where are you from like province

[@tnekkc]

Great trapping acting.... better than any non union scripted reality show.... is this a TV show?

[@MrDuhprive]

Yes it is. Its on Wild TV. I forgot the name tho

[@linklesstennessee2078]

youputting the bust on them lynx andrew

[@ShaqsGay69]

What do you do with the meat from the animals you trap?

[@MrDuhprive]

Hey uses it for bait and Charlie!

[@todd4459]

What's a link?

[@ubtrapper3077]

NICE!!!

[@TheaterBobster]

OK at 3:43 there is a shot of you in your skinning shack. There is a POSTER in the shot. I see the name "Alice Cooper". I lived not to fare from the studio that he worked in.

[@TheWildNorth]

+Bob Elliott yupp thats the poster you ever meet him?

[@TheaterBobster]

+TheWildNorth Unfortunately I was not able to meet him. How I found out that he was in the studio is we were hanging out and his limo driver started talking to us. I don't remember all the conversation but I do remember he was telling us how much he enjoyed playing golf. The studio he was at was called Amigo recording studio it was a branch of Warner Bros. records. Today the studio is no longer there it has been replaced by a large apartment complex but if you go online you can find some information about the studio. My friend and I were fortunate enough to get a tour of inside the studio back then and that is when I decided to become a sound engineer. Nowadays I work in a small studio theater with about 221 seats. You are probably asking yourself how did I come across your videos. Your dog Charlie has the same name as my dog Charlie and I was doing some videos and your video popped up and I have been watching them ever since. Keep up the good work. PS were you at that concert or do you just collect memorabilia?

[@QuitsArtist821]

Why don't you show yourself dispatching the animal?

[@robcahill4413]

Hey Andrew I just slap a 280 over my foxes I catch so I don't get brains on me while skinning but u probably don't want to get that close to the lynx I'm guessing keep the vids coming bud

[@bobbyharper8710]

+SUPERCRACKER OUTDOORS If you get close they may scare and struggle free.

[@alnbaba]

I see bbq'd bravo in your future, that machine is running like a bag of shit. The first cold day the old machine is gonna take a dump and go up in flames.

[@adreenamarko5432]

poor creates it was a kitten

[@DarrenCharron]

Light her up!
