Wolverine Trapping Alaska 2024 Episode 3
End of the season run to check and pull all of the traps before heading off overseas. I had a decent season other than having all my footers sprung and fur pulled by a couple of idiots.
Weather was colder than usual for that area with less snowfall than usual also. I'm looking forward to trapping a new area that I flew over a few times. I saw a fair amount of Wolverine and Marten sign along with a resident Wolf pack, so it should be fun to go set a new line in that area!

Starting the 23/24 Alaska trapping season off with mink, marten, ermine, and wolverine. I am filming a fairly raw landscape perspective of the day-to-day occurrences, and creatures I encounter on this vast trapline.

"...didn't have the decency to reset the trap" "...a beauty" The 'dead-zone' is not inclined to listen for, let alone hear Lifes' subtlties.
You know wolverines are a protected species right?
every species here in Alaska is protected in some way, hence why the trapping and hunting is fairly good
Do the fur buyers complain about the snared fur? Has to be a ring, isn’t there? Loved seeing the success snaring wolverine. Snares are sure a lot cheaper than financing a thief’s trap line with four pound steel traps. People used to die for that stuff. Not that long ago. Congratulations on your catch.
No, snares generally don’t damage any fur. General etiquette goes a long way, people died for a lot less back in the day. Thanks dude
I used snares on spring open water beaver. They are SO easy to snare on the bank then. They would be waiting on the bank, usually sleeping if I came on them quietly. But it put a ring on the pelt so I had to quit doing that. I am told the guard hairs get brittle in the spring. Again, was fun to see snares working on wolverine, and nice to know you can do it without fur damage. Thank you.
I don’t know how Alaska trappers get away with sifting snow over their traps. In the lower 48, sifted snow makes a hard crust over the trap. It obviously works up there. Maybe just a lot colder.
you do have to be careful how you do it as you certainly do get a crust forming, I don't mind a crust with wolverine footer sets as I want them to really stack some weight on the pan before it goes off. Im no expert by any means but I think if I can make them wrestle with the bait while on their hind feet they break the crust and set the footer off also with a lot off weight and get a nice deep catch. hope this makes sense.let me know if you have any good ideas. thanx bud
@@AdventureHuntsWorldwide I’ve seen other Alaska videos where snow is sifted. And you guys know way more than me. It has failed for me, but for animals lighter and less committed to the set. I have successfully slid the trap in from the side without disturbing the surface snow. Have also done this under existing tracks in situations where I know they are going to step in their track rather than make a new one. But I need a fence line or something to hide my own sign. It works. Snow is tough for me. You are never without it. I got nothing but respect for you guys up there.
OK👍
I love your channel, it's raw and you do not cater to the woke - Thank God! Please keep the old ways and traditions going, they must not die. This country was built on trapping and the fur trade, and it propelled the new nations of Canada and the US to grow into the powerhouses that we are today. Again, thank you for keeping the great tradition of trapping going you big Kiwi!! 🇳🇿 🇺🇸
Can you use those mink's and weezzel's for Wolverine bait?
you can, I had an abundance of other bait so I didn't need to
How would he like that if did that to him..hunting exotic animals should be illegal.no respect for 😮 hole...
these are not exotics, we can legally hunt and trap here in Alaska
Cruel, destructive jerk!
Why your kill animals?
I love your channel !!!! Gotta get a .22 tho lol.
Living the dream
What is it at 14:00
A mailbox someone else used for a trap years ago.
Why not kill it if you find it in the trap?
Beautiful landscape and primal life your living alot of people's dreams 😊
Love it man
Удачи, 👍
Great video! What do u use as a bait in the boxes?
Bummer about losing the wolverines. Hope you reported to the troopers.
Can you not dispatch the animals? Since your trapping?
dispatch I do with a snare pole on bigger species, the smaller species I let the trap do its job so as to not spoil fur
Thanks
Alaska here. Think you’d have a little more respect for your kills. “Piles of shit”. Have some decency about you yeah
If u know who is screwing with ur line, why don't u confront them? Or hide trail cams and turn them in.
Hi Hope you're doing well We have been working on high-quality boots for years and boots made from environment-friendly material are our priority. We are going to release an upgraded rubber boots. We think the waterproof & anti-slip boot will be a great helper for when you work outdoors.are you interested in testing boots？ Thank you😊
Great video, excellent landscape shots!
Привіт , я з України після війни теж хочу займатися цею працею
Great video and way to end the season with a couple nice wolverine. Sorry to hear you had to deal with someone stealing animals and gear. I was surprised you had those issues in a fly in area. I have dealt with my share of it on the road system.
just a couple of wannabe trappers....women trying to be something they're not....no big deal ,ill go elsewhere and leave them to catch their fingers on a super cold day
Great trapline series! I really enjoyed watching these videos and hope you continue to film your trapline adventures in the years to come!!
Thanks bud, plenty more to come. Canada and NZ trapping vids in the near future.
Did you confront that thief?
It's all old hat, now. Years ago, they trapped etc. All out of date, given the gradual destruction of what was the wild. Just an indulgence.
Best way 2 keep your gear is use a impact driver and a 4 inch leg screw threw chain. If they don't have bolt cutters it will be there when you get back
Sweet as mate
Nice catches. I've never seen a wolverine trapped in a tree. You need to follow up on those theives. Game cameras in the future & report it to the warden. Bloody scumbags.
What part of Alaska you in
lower central
Amazing to get that wolverine in the tree snare set!
Thanks bud, it’s something I’m working on. I’ll let you know when I’ve got it perfected 😂👍
Fur stolen by none other than wannabe Wonder Woman 👀😀 iykyk
Does he know who the thief is?
Boy you got some fur bums
Nice video mate. That's a bummer about the fur thieves.
Call game wardens as thats a serious thing messing with traps. Set up game cameras and get them or a bear trap about 3 feet before actual trap set 😂😂😂. Old 1800s toothed bear trap, the type to take a foot almost off your leg😂😂😂
Wow!!! Such beautiful country!! Your lucky!!!!
Those are some great catches!! Now you have a good idea where to hunt moose next year!!
Wow, great content. I just found your channel and i already cant wait for more videos lol.
Are mink worth more than martin? Arent they bigger?
A 23in male martin is worth $80, and a mink is worth $10. Martin will be larger in size.
@@AdventureHuntsWorldwide wow ,thanks
That’s the calmest wolverine I’ve ever seen lol
Less cursing would make your video better.
He's a trapper in a tough environment. You want gentleman go back to msnbc. Karen
Dude, you should be on the children’s channel.
No land for Nancy pants!
A pair of balls would make you a better man
Keep crying Tim
Stupid stupid, stupid. Bunny boot mind
Great video. Right around the 17:58 mark there's something in the background that seems to get behind the spruce, peeks out, then tucks back in. Any ideas?
Thanks, would be another moose.
That was my first guess, second was a GIANT WOOKIEE, but I understand they are believed to be extirpated from that region, and I for one am glad they're gone! The Canadian military sent me to Anchorage for a couple one month trips, and I had the only two months in my life where I 'might' have been convinced to change my birth certificate...Amazing place! @@AdventureHuntsWorldwide
You will die out there if you don't get a partner. Sled breaks down or crash ur dead
I grew up hearing the same thing. Truth is, I’ve never known any hunter or trapper who became great at it by waiting for someone to join them. They all are lone wolves. Have to be. They might have partners for a time. But they don’t wait for that to happen.
id like to think I'm better equipped than just dying if my sled breaks down, thanx for the advice and concern tho
Quit cursing so much. Can't watch it like this.
Sorry didn’t mean to offend. We all have our struggles.
Man up.
choir boys don't trap, these men are beasts...
A real trapper would have dispatched the martin, not leaving it to die overnight You're a wanna be and a never will be a imitation trapper
Thanks for your educated opinion. Much appreciated.
Think your mixing this video with that of another Alaskan UA-camr.
That was a conibear trap. There is no more humane way to kill an animal than what that trap did. @bobstewart4342 you are showing you know nothing about trapping. If he emptied that trap in the dark, we would not have gotten that beautiful shot of that gorgeous fur in the daylight.
Great video, just subbed
