    Minnesota Rancher. Don't be ashamed to take that buck rack and give it the mount that it deserves. Some day your grandkids will ask you about it, and after you tell the story, they will think, ' wow, you were a deer hunter And a Wolf trapper!'. Great video. Keep it up!

    I don't know anything about furs but I find it interesting that there is a market for squirrel furs. Perhaps you could do a video talking about what some of the furs are used for these days... I enjoy you taking us around your trap line. Thanks for the videos.

    • @tomwilson6915
      @tomwilson6915 2 роки тому

      Squirrel is a popular fur material used in the tying of artificial flies for fly fishing, it’s used in an awful lot of fly patterns as is rabbit fur. Fly tying on its own is quite a popular pastime, particularly outside the various fishing seasons.

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  2 роки тому +4

      Thanks for the suggestion! I'll try to touch on that topic in future vids. I'm actually planning on keeping some squirrels after this season is through. I'll tan them and make some leather goods from the pelts. I'll film the process and various projects of course. Hoping to keep up with videos even after the trapping season is over. Take care!

    • @Isnogood12

    Definitely interested in the wild game cooking videos! I always thought it would be awesome to cook a whole rabbit over a fire, like on a spit.
    My coworker brought in a squirrel he killed in his yard with a pellet gun, I was really curious what it tasted like while everyone else was grossed out. He gave me a leg and my first bit I bit into a lead pellet, lol. He was like "Oh crap, I forgot I needed two shots for that one!"

Hope you have success with the Lynx and the Wolves, presumably Grays are the common species in your part of the world… Another enjoyable episode in any event, wishing you success for the remainder of the season.

We have a chance of snow on Monday. Well is your name spelled Ryley or Riley ? It's nice to see you again. So you have caught your lunch. If that is government land,then they let you build your cabin on their land ? That coffee will warm you up. Thanks for sharing your video. Stay warm. Is that all from one squirrel? See ya !

    Just wondering if the Crown Biologist live trap and then radio collar to track the fur bearers...here in Maine they do a radio collar program on black bear, which helps the state to decide which areas have high life cycles by bear den and cub counts...have you tried Crock Pot Rague? It was a fav of my grandfather during winter...he would fatten up the critters with peanuts in shells and then used an air rifle from the back deck to dispatch them🤣🤣🤣Cheers from Maine.

    Oh, i forgot to add...one of the other trappers I follow always seems to do a lot better on the marten when the temps go up during the winter. It's like when it's -30 to -10 they don't move much but if it gets closer to zero they are out like crazy. Just a thought.

      It does an ok job. It has good enough auto focus & stabilization. The 60x zoom is really nice. Only downside is the autofocus makes sound that the mic picks up. Some clips you can hear the electronic sound. I'll probably upgrade my film setup for this channel in the warmer months of the year. For now it's good enough though. Thanks for watching.

      @@KuskWild that is a pretty neat way to take them, here in Missouri we can take them with box trap or 110 body grips. I learned when I was just a kid trapping for mink. I was setting 110s on logs crossing creeks and up under root wads, and the edge of creeks were the banks are straight up. I would set them tight against the bank, I caught a few mink but I kept the family fed with squirrels and rabbits. I like watching you trap the country your in but I don’t think I could take the weather you deal with. Just about to cold here for me anymore.
