Most of the folks who leave hateful comments live under the world of Perception... Where we live under the world of Perspective, which is a much higher frequency & no where near as toxic. If these folks had any level of perspective, they'd try to educate themselves & learn why you can only take 2 Wolves per season, their eating habits, the benefits of baiting them, etc... And guess what? Wolves will still kill a Moose or Deer just to practice their skillsets even with a giant pile of bait left by a human... Not saying they won't come back to that dead Moose/Deer, but they do kill for "fun" as per research & speaking to other guides I appreciate the love brother!!! God Bless!@@1HeavyHitr

Each wolf has its own trail. The trail isn't written in stone but there are exact places THAT wolf will pass when traveling from A to B. Find that trail, set a snare, and you will have a wolf.

Do find the timing of the wolf visits to bait to be totally random and any daylight hour equal, or do you see any pattern to when they come? I have a hunt starting Jan 1, 24. Trying to decide whether to try to sit daylight to dark or concentrate on a shorter time span. My concern is at my age, I don't think I can deal with the cold all day.
@PatterningNature8 ай бұрын
It varies. I’ve had them consistently tending to the bait during the morning as the sun rises, then they’ll switch to feeding before dark, or even at 1-3AM. There are consistencies but sitting all day for Wolf allows you to see the smaller wolves coming in to grab a bite while the bigger wolves are laying down. You have more opportunity to see more through an entire day of sitting. Bring a thermos of Tea, get some heated socks or hand warmers & toss them in your boots. Heck, get the sticky hand warmer pads & slap one on your back & one on your chest to stay warm. If you have a blind, just bring a little heater if you can - even if it’s a methyl hydrate toilet paper heater! (Google it lol)

Usually see a few wolves up Snake , Chikuni and the rail bed. Didn't see or hear any this year. Heard them last year but couldn't get a bead on any of them 😞. One of my best wolf encouters happened about 10 yrs ago. Shot a young bull and had sent my hunting buddy back to camp to grab the gear and the boys to get him out of the cut. I went as close as I could with my atv and just sat on the bike waiting for the gang to arrive when all of a sudden I had a whole pack just on the inside of the bush edge(about 50 yds) start howling like mad(of course they were in the thick stuff and just out of eye sight) at the moment it was sureal being so close yet it was hair raising as well, especially since I had 3 rounds in my pocket.....LOL

I've seen wolves drag deer across Howey Bay when it freezes over so winter can be harsh for the deer whether its snow, wolves, or whatever. Another good road in Ear Falls would be Gold Pines but you have to check the maps to ensure you are within the firearm discharge area because if you are too close to Ear Falls you can't be slinging rounds off - Should be able to find it online in a PDF format somewhere... I know Red Lake has a discharge firearm map & it gives you a good radius to be aware of when hunting to ensure you're lawful when discharging.

@@PatterningNature the wolf's here need to be controlled. Upper Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin are really having a problem. The fact of the matter is our Departments(s) of Natural Resources are a institution of financial profit and not of game management. Residents are quitting outdoor sports and its a waterfall effect, take my neighbor as a case in point; a lifelong coyote trapper that stopped trapping because all he would catch is wolf's. Super cool pictures for sure but a pita to release several wolf's daily. Then he noticed a trend; usually a trapped wolf takes off like shot out of a gun when released but more and more often a wolf would run off a few yards then stop, check him out and circle around for a while. So he said it was getting too sketchy. So less and less people are trapping and big game hunting which just opens the door for even more predation. My friends disabled father spent 11 full days sitting in his deer blind with a crossbow before our rifle season. He saw zero deer but several wolf's. My rifle deer season was 6 days afield, and I still hunt, I saw a fork horn and a spike but not a single other deer, not a doe, fawn or a fleeting tail. It's over. Thanks for letting me rant.

@@PatterningNature I'm a big fan of the caliber, but I have to question your choice in projectiles as match bullets were designed for putting holes in paper and not critters. IMO, I think it would be best to use a much lighter hunting bullet for varmints so the bullet disintegrates shortly after impact. Just out of curiosity, are those 77's passing right through? Also, have you ever used the 223 for deer? I think the 60 to 64 grain bullet options out there would make for some great venison medicine, IMO.

@@jimdent351 you are correct my friend! The only reason I use these are due to the weight & the fact they penetrate right through the animal. That 2nd Wolf I shot - the round went right through both front legs & into the boulder behind him… he most definitely did not drop immediately but somehow ran 115 yards up the hill & then laid down. Wolves are extremely tough & resilient. And yeah actually .223 is my overall hunting calibre - I shot a 8 pointer last year & dropped him in his tracks. But thinking back, one Wolf last year did not have an exit wound so now I’m curious to try the 60 or 64 grain you mentioned.
@jimdent3518 ай бұрын
@@PatterningNature My opinion, and that's all it is, so don't think I'm telling you what to do because that's not my intent but I've heard that fast moving varmint bullets work great on coyotes and wolves because they make tiny little entrance holes but don't exit because they break apart so quickly after impact. No exit hole equals a nice pelt and a 100% energy dump. HOWEVER, I would test this theory before putting it into a real world hunting situation With deer it is most desirable for a bullet that expands well but holds together for deep penetration. That's why my research had lead me to the 60 to 65 grain bullet range for deer. In fact Winchester produces a 223 64 grain cartridge that they market for deer. I could never get great accuracy out of them with my Tikka but they would have been just fine for hunting. When it comes to reloading I like the 60 gr Nosler Partition, 62 gr Speer Gold Dot, and the 65 gr Sierra Game King. I haven't, however had a chance for load development due to numerous factors going on right now. Another thing that my research has brought me to is rifling twist rate. A slow twist such as 1/12 likes the lighter short bullets, but the slower twist rates such as 1/8 love the heavier and longer bullets. Again my ability to test these theories are limited to different life factors as of this time. That's just my 2 cents so do with it as you will. I just found your channel and love some great Canadian content. I'm in Southern ON and I just subbed. Keep them coming!
