Trapline Adventures: Improve Your Catch Rate

[@bm-kb8kh]

Always great to see those Kids learning about trapping. And the importance of balance.

[@deadpinecollective]

I agree, thank you!

[@LauraGorman-n7o]

When does Rachel start her trapping classes? I think that is so cool ! Thanks for getting the kids involved !! 😊

[@deadpinecollective]

It should happen in the spring. Thanks for the support

[@BusterCreekOutdoors]

The kids look like they really enjoy the trapline! Lots of great helpers gathered sticks for the Lynx cubby .. the best of luck to you and the kids on the next check!

[@deadpinecollective]

Those little kids were a riot. They are from a rural community outside of the main city and absolutely love being on the trapline and playing in the bush😁

[@eastcoastcabinfever]

Your good man Them kids when they get older their gonna think back to their younger years and feel good memories. Peace my friend ✌️👍

[@deadpinecollective]

Thanks. We are definitely creating some great memories

Yous have warm weather out there, we've been stuck with minus -30 weather for a week, gonna be out tomorrow too!

[@deadpinecollective]

This last week has been-30 to -35 as well. This vid was just before the cold snap. It’s -25 today and we are back out checking those traps in the vid.

[@eastcoastcabinfever]

I’m not sure 🤔 but I’m thinking you’re the only or close to be the only guy bringing kids along for trapping lessons. Props friend 👍✌️

[@deadpinecollective]

It’s a pretty new concept for larger centers but smaller communities, especially in the north are doing some similar things.

[@thecamocowboyoutdoors5693]

That Rachel is pretty serious about it isn't she? That's nice to see. Thanks for the video Brother! Take care.

[@deadpinecollective]

She is very serious. I’ve only had one other student (the year I started this) as serious and interested. Unfortunately it was his Sr year when we started this up. I saw that in her one her first trip and offered the opportunity to come out regularly. Lots of kids absolutely love being out there, but she actually loves the profession of being a trapper from site location, setting traps, to skinning and processing the hide. Very rare at that age!

[@exploringmybackyard]

Awesome video I think with the cold snap coming and some snow things will start moving

[@deadpinecollective]

We were just out today, and coyotes are moving in after the wolves. Got one today. Not much else except squirrels 🙄😂

[@exploringmybackyard]

@@deadpinecollective 🤞 they start moving

[@fernfournier3625]

Another great day in the outdoors great for your youth students . One trick I use in front of my otter beavers traps in the creek to prevent grass is putting a stick with branches in front of the trap a foot or more prevent many sprung traps

[@deadpinecollective]

I like that strategy. I’ll give it a go in the spring

[@eastcoastcabinfever]

Haha she called u mark I have brothers named mark an Reid. Crazy

[@deadpinecollective]

Ya it was funny

[@gkhuntertrapper2738]

you guys get those extreme cold yet? ridiculous here nothing is moving for the last 5 days starting to warm up tomorrow will see..

[@deadpinecollective]

Yes same as you all last week and this weekend. Went out today and some coyotes and tons of rabbits moving around. Not much else….except squirrels 🙄

[@SlayermikeFishingandMORE]

It must be warm there seeing they are not wearing coats out there in that first group

[@deadpinecollective]

It was really warm for Dec but we just went through a cold snap which feels a bit more normal 😁
