You hot me still... It's great to hear you State that your learning under the ice.. I to only set triggers up.. cant have holes in the Back of WINTER CATCHES... THSNKS FOR YOUR POSTS
Done pretty good for a wolf trapper 👍that ice looked pretty skechy over the bog, that Clearwater footage was fantastic at the lodge. I was really hoping you would catch on the adarondac Johny thorp baited set, I seen one where the bait was wired on the trigger wires, great to see you back.
How thick is that ice? Looks a little spooky to me! The reason I made a shoulder holster for my 22, is falling through beaver ponds. I've only done a little beaver trapping through the ice. Mainly with snares. It's a lot of work, but it is kind of fun. It's weird snaring them like that. You don't always catch them around the neck. Leg or even tail catches are pretty common. I don't recall ever catching any under the ice with a conibear, but I had good luck with the snares and a foot trap wired to a leaning pole with aspen sticks as bait.
I’ve seen Rich Mellon from @TrappingInc use that hanging coni set. He used a piece of white pvc with a slit, so it would roll when he caught a beaver in it. Food for thought!
Very neat seeing what it looks like under the water, both the sets and the beaver. Bullet thinks he's a polar bear! This was a great video! I don't usually watch them this long. Start to finish on this one.
Good to see you back Brother! Those are some nice looking beaver. When I was young I trapped a lot of beaver under the ice but I'm not young anymore. Under the ice is a lot of work unless you know where the runs are. Sometimes in the fall before freeze up I would go and mark the runs by driving a dry pole into the mud on each side of the run. Sure makes it easy come winter.
Wish I would've thought of case skinning this year. I've got at least 30 with the super silver to pale blonde bellies this year. Stoked your back on the UA-cam, gonna have to get together for a post season drink soon. Good luck on the rest of your spring line.
That was a very nice looking beaver! Awesome to see you out there and see my sticker on your snowmobile! I cant beleive Bullet got in that water! Very cool underwater footage! First time I've seen one case skinned and boarded! Good luck with everything my friend!
You need to weld a loop on the end of your bar so you can put a rope or chain on. Someday if you don't your bar will slide out of your frozen gloves and disappear down the hole.
@@montanawolftrapper8666 we had snow since end of Oct melts off rain then snows then melts then rains again made it a rough go this year It had melted all off where the sun hits then 3” last night 🤣
Not sure what set you are talking about. It don’t matter now the sets are pulled. 46 yrs of setting Conibears I’m sure I’ve left quite a few safety’s on. Hell I know I did. I bet In the next 20 yrs I leave quite a few safety’s on. . If you don’t make mistakes you ain’t doin anything.
@Montana wolf Trapper I have to way to many times myself, that's probably why I noticed it . I seen 330 maniac on utube use a small wire on the coil of the spring to hold the safety and I started doing it so I wouldn't forget the safeties on.
Is that gall who's logging in there? Cool underwater footage man. Our ice is getting bad too, it's fine on smaller shallow lakes, but the rivers are way sketchy and so are bigger lakes
@@Northwoods208 my heart started beating when the water started to spray. I looked back to see a trench from my paddle track. I thought to myself, it’s 10 miles to my truck! I’m to old to be taking these risks. Lol
@@montanawolftrapper8666 hell I'm only 30 and I still try to keep my snow machine from dragging me to the bottom, I hear it's hazardous for a guy's health lol
Glad to see you back Paul! Got a few spring braver traps out myself. Keep up the great work.
Great to see you making videos again. I use a potato on the trigger for the hanging 330 sets to clean up the stragglers. Great video my friend 👍

Thanks for putting up a video Paul!
Good catch that ice did not slow the 330 down at all
Yup
Glad to see you back. Best of luck to the remainder of the season. Looking forward to your next video.
Nice to see you back and doing well. You're out busting it in 3 ft of snow, and I had to leave MI for a week for some warmth in TN. Hats off, nice job

16” of slush lol
@@montanawolftrapper8666 Well....I guess it worked!!!
Beautiful beaver and nice underwater footage, it’s been awhile since I’ve done that. Might have to try again. Cold swim for the bullet. 😂
Awesome job, buddy. I enjoyed every second of your video👍🏻 Nice 🦫
Thanks chip!!

Cool
Well done
Well I hope all is well glad to see you back and making a few videos. Look forward to the next one stay safe my friend.
👍👍

This was a great video! I don't usually watch them this long. Start to finish on this one.
Thanks Gary!!!!!
@@montanawolftrapper8666 You bet Paul!
Great to see ya back, so jealous of that clear water trapping.
Glad to see you back posting videos! Nice catches. Good luck with the rest of the season
You sir are living my dream!
I’m living my dream. You should pursue yours!!!
Thanks for watching
Glad you are getting back. thx
Underwater videos are great.
That water is crystal

That was my first time on that lake. I totally agree
😎💪🏻🇺🇸
Great to see you back in action, hope to see many more videos, good luck
Beaver trapping is a lot of work. Even more where you are

Congrats again on that otter!
Awesome video bro nice to see you back on here God Bless

Great catches Paul wow its been awhile since your last video thanks for sharing brother til next time stay safe and warm 👍🤜🐺
Good to see ya back on brother. We're still with you bro. I love beaver videos.
Thanks for hangin in there!

I had a strap prior to filming this and it broke. Yup I agree and there’s one back on there.
Profit and trapping, is there such a thing? Glad to see your posting again! Super cool.
Marketing my friend. It’ll take a few months but I’ll make $400 off this beaver.
Holy you still have snow lol I put the snow machine away a month ago
Rookie lmao 🤣
Shit we had snow since November 1st. Still 2ft on the ground.
@@montanawolftrapper8666 we had snow since end of Oct melts off rain then snows then melts then rains again made it a rough go this year

@@scottdittmer1654 Same here but ours hasn’t melted since November 1. It’s been white on the ground since November 1
Hes back
It looked like you didn't take the safeties off

I’m not sure. Shewwee it was bad scary!
@@montanawolftrapper8666 yeah, not a warm fuzzy feeling when you're sinking into the surface of the ice/slush mixture above unknown depths
