      SwampDonkey530 I hear you, I just love youtube and having the ability to search for whatever I'm in the mode to watch. I'd rather watch you-tube vids then TV.

    Great looking set buddy and I have a couple of young trappers that are going to just love this set. Thanks for sharing and all the best.

    Very clever adaption of a leg hold. I like it.

    I"m curious if you've experimented with wood conibears and a spring pole for the draw?

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  8 років тому

      +JoboBlevins No I haven't basically because they are not legal to use here but it would definitely make for a good video for a survival tactic. I will put this idea in my bucket list of videos to do. Thanks for watching.

      I like figuring things out like this, nice way to pass time when you're in the woods waiting for a moose to respond to a call.

    • @jonabaker

      It is entertaining. Much like throwing rocks at a knot on a tree from 20 yards. I know I can nail it every time with a 22 cal but the rocks are much more fun. To me, the primitive ways are interesting and I'm glad to see the increasing online interest in this genre.

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  8 років тому

      yes I feel the same way.

    I’ve been able to catch over 20 squirrels in a live trap recently and another 4 or 5 with a connibear trap, but there are two left in my yard that have become very trap shy. Would this work for smart squirrels that have become very wary of metal objects and free food? They won’t go near peanut butter or pecans or sunflower seeds I leave even far from the traps!

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  Місяць тому +1

      it might but I like the conibears I converted to pan traps. They work great

    • @dfreemanbooks

      @ Do you have a video about that? I’m new to trapping and just trying to save my vegetable garden and fruit trees from the squirrels and rabbits.

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  10 років тому

      Heith Gagnon Glad you liked it Gonzo, it's a quick simple set I used as a kid to catch weasels. Mom called herself "The Can Opener Queen" so I always had a good supply of cans. I would place cans out in the woods with bait in it and once a weasel hit the can I'd place a trap there. This way I never tied up my traps that I could be using on mink or muskrats until I knew I would get a weasel. 6 traps could handle 20 cans easily and once a weasel gets an easy meal he'll be back for more. I'd more my traps from active can to active can and it always produced kill catches for me.

  • @1DNGJR
    @1DNGJR 10 років тому +1

    Awesome idea, we don't have a lot of weasels where l am but l would like to catch a weasel for my bucket list. Going to put that to the test this winter, TY Ghost.

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  10 років тому

      1DNGJR Well Happy New Year and all the best with your bucket list. Hope you video the set and results and share it with us. Take care.

  • @notyourpapa
    @notyourpapa 8 років тому

    What happens if they are coming out of the hole instead of going in and set the trap off with their front paw? You have a trap that's set off and an animal that will be trap shy. instead I'd use twigs to divert it to the trigger and have it step over the jaw.

    • @NLGhostWolf
      @NLGhostWolf  8 років тому +1

      Use a can or dig the hole, don't place this over an existing hole.

    • @NLGhostWolf

      They are bad for the chickens, they don't stop at just one, they are programmed for killing. I hope you caught the bugger...
