I've been trapping for meat and fur since my Grandpa taught me how to build and use rabbit boxes and squirrel snares that was in the '70s. I still love to learn, thank you for these videos, I know I've learned from your videos, and I'm sure others have also. "Give a man a fish, and you've fed for a day, teach a man to fish, and you've fed him for a lifetime." God bless y'all.
Thank You Meat Trapper!!
I used your Snare School (I'm a total beginner) and now I have Braver meat in the freezer and a pelt drying in the basement 🇺🇸
I'm not a trapper but I find your video's interesting. I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. Great job Sir!
Dear Meat Trapper, I am new to snaring and have learned a lot from your videos. Thank you.-Paul
It's a mystery to me what makes a good instructional channel, but I instantly liked yours
I wanted to learn how to set snares the other day and watched one of your videos and I really enjoy your content and the extra advice or foresight you take the time to explain. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for putting the effort into making this, it's very much appreciated.
Great video. Looking forward to more
Whole series is great thank you
Great video really good it is helpful already I am going to try to snare a few beaver this year. Looking forward to the next one
Very informative and thanks for sharing.
I'm new to this and you bring a lot of knowledge to the table thank you for a well-done video
just getting into trapping. thank u for taking your time to share with us. cant wait to try it out in that good old ALABAMA delta.
Good luck and if you have any questions let me know!
Really appreciate the videos, and you sharing with us. Looking forward to the next Episode. Thank you.

James W Thank you sir - I appreciate your kind words.
Great job on the intro video. Appreciate your experience AND your being willing to share it with the rest of us. Hope the garden is going fine too.
Nate McKenzie Thanks buddy - the garden is winding down in the heat but I'm getting my fall plantings ready.
Anxiously waiting for the next episode! Thanks!
Jeffrich308 Next one will be on building snares yourself. Should be out in a week or so. Thanks for watching!
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing.
imasurvivornthriver Thanks for watching. I appreciate the support.
Everything I learned about building snares and snaring Beaver, I learned from you.
They hired a "professional trapper" to get these Beaver out of here. He has only trapped pest raccons up to now an bout two 330s to do the job, but he doesn't know how to make a proper set...no caster or anything. So I have been teaching him by doing my own sets and sent links to your videos. I had 2 failed fires last night but made some major changes and got my first tonight at 1:00, but the night is still young. One more caster mound set, and 2 lay down sets with caster under the trunk of the trees. I expect to get more before the night is over. All anyone needs to do to learn how to build snares and trap Beaver is to watch your videos and they will nevet go hungery.😎👍
Awesome job brother!School him!!
great video,look forward to your next one.great content take care
Wallace Vivian Thanks buddy - counting the days till the cool weather returns here.

+Timothy Schnaekel No problem buddy - glad they are helping out - and thanks for watching!
Great Job my friend, I just sent this video to all of my friends!

The Meat Trapper
Just a little give back when I can.
This is great info my friend I got to up grade my cable and make my own thank you
Yooper Digger57 Thanks for watching and stay tuned!
Very informative
thank you so much!!
My grandad use to come over from Italy and suddenly all the rabbits were gone and we had stews nearly every day, I use magnets now so much easier to set up
Nice job
david gillenwater Thank you sir.
LOOKING FOR WARD TOO MY NEXT SCHOOLING NICE
So good...
You the man..
I am looking for a video that shows the snare being helped with a bungee cord when tripped, was that yours?
Thanks for the great instruction. I appreciate you generosity in time and effort. It looks like the traditional snare swivel is something that could be manufactured at home out of 11 gauge or 9 gauge wire. Have you tried to do that?
+James Reynolds Thank you sir - that means a lot to me. It does take a lot of time, effort and some amount of expense to make the videos. The family, wife and others all want their slice of time as well.
You can easily make your own swivels and j hooks using a tool like this: www.fntpost.com/Products/The+Trapper's+Bender
You buy the tool and then use your own wire - that way you don't have to place an order and pay shipping for just a few dollars worth of parts - especially when the shipping costs more than the parts you are ordering!
great vids bro I've never done this before. I live in Vegas. found a great spot where there is a bunch of rabbits. I'll be using your advice to catch some tasty rabbits
Absolutely superb work. Concerning the trade off between visibility of cable vs risk of being chewed through. From your experience is 3/64" a definite no for squirrel size targets? 1/16" better choice? Understand 5/64" is you favorite but for what targets will you chose 1/16" if any? What % of each would you stockpile in your situation/
That's what spring snaring is for keeping the animal off the ground hanging, they can't bite through it.
Thanks for the information.
Here in the Bahamas using snares was popular with our grandparents to catch hogs but the information wasn't passed down because
of how it kills dogs and now just a few trappers do it in secret and are seen as poachers .. I've only seen jury rigged snares with a slipknot.
You are correct that this could life saving information in a grid down situation ... thanks
Ps ... a tuna long line clip might work as a better swivel ?
what are your top 3 traps of all time ???
I'm going to use fishing line
Or guitar strings.
very informative. thanks for the video series. I use humane traps and then dispatch the animal in the trap. then I have to wash it out. very time consuming and not practical for feeding a family. i have had god luck, 30 squirrels and 1 rabbit in the havaheart trap, but i want bigger numbers. I will be getting into snares and conibears this coming season.
+Steven Mull Sounds like you are doing great! What kind of bait did you use in the havahart?
+The Meat Trapper
I have real good luck with old apple pieces or peanut butter. I put rocks and bricks around the trap so they cannot reach the bait. I also dig a hole under it and place 2 or 3 whole walnuts in there. gives them multiple scents to come look for. rabbits love apples too, but the squirrels normally get there first. my daughter loves eating rabbits over squirrels. snares will improve my rabbit numbers since the squirrels take over the live bait trap.
+Steven Mull Thanks for sharing your tactics! I've never tried apples for squirrels, but I'l give it a try and see what happens. So far, for squirrels, my best luck has been with black oil sunflower seeds. You can get them in the bird feed section at Walmart. They really love them. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Steven Mull never cleaned out my traps dispatch multiple squirrels before the actual trapping season started when it was still squirrel season inside the traps and still caught raccoon and skunk and opossums after the season started October 25th skunks are very useful particularly after you kill them I made very good use of my skunk dirt had an opossum the next day
Dear Meat Trapper,
Thank you so much for this very informational way to setup snares. I am fairly new to it. I did learn from your videos. BTW- can you focus on using a No. 9 wire snare support? Thank you again.-Paul
Check this video out ua-cam.com/video/0-JxprC0v30/v-deo.html
I live in NW Florida. Florida doesn't allow the use of body grip and leghold traps so that leaves me with using live animal traps and snares. I trap for food and I do plan on using the hides in the future as gifts. I'm new to snares but not the cage traps so these video's are a big help for me. Thanks for putting these videos out. Where do you buy you snare wire and supplies from?
Robert Taylor The best place and the one I use is southernsnares.com . Tell Brian that Meattrapper sent you. You can call Brian and tell him what you want to catch and he will guide in what will work best. Thanks!
Robert Taylor why does it have a problem with body gripping traps that even more ridiculous than snares body gripping traps are basically like giant mouse traps and kill the animal very quickly so long as they set on the neck properly the same thing with a common mouse trap I guess Peta did their damage in Florida as they make up lies involving the foothold showing pictures of ones with teeth and a little girls foot stuck in a giant bear trap even though the jaws are welded and the trap could not possibly close
The Meat Trapper I've ordered some things from Southern snares mainly my fish oil and I believe the fox piss is also coming from them I'll give their website a look
Robert Taylor nh
Do you know if it's legal to snare hogs in Mississippi? I've read through the trapping regulations but all they mention are coral traps. Thanks.
Yes it is legal. I have snared many of them in MS.
what size cable would you recommend for red deer/goats?
3/32 1x19 will hold anything up to and including wild hogs.
@@Meattrapper thank you
Yes, yes! Do it good. Do it all the way. No funky city trapping teacher. Get down to all the nuts and bolts items, and train us up to Trapping graduate level 999 (!). There is only 1 way to learn trapping and snaring ... and that is the CORRECT and RIGHT way .... Thank you....
John Lord Thank you very much sir! This will be my most detailed, step by step series. If I leave anything out or if something is not clear - please let me know so I correct it.
Those are fencing crimps that you use to secure the ends of your cut cable. Looked to be 12 gauge for your wire, just guessing.
Would have liked to see how each stop lock worked, as you did the cam lock. I guess time constraints prevented you from doing so.
Great video series to learn from. Thank you.
well snares are banned here in New York but I will still educate myself on them
That's unconstitutional and a crime against humanity,all human beings have the human and constitutional right to hunt,trap, and fish for food.
since we now have the need to now how to catch our own food : Donnald Trump" Servival is a nessesity . please Lesson to Mr.Meat Trapper.

This whole series is great. Now I tried to order the materials and they are saying I need to be a licensed trapper. Not sure how that makes any sense when I'm ordering aircraft cable, and locks that I could get from almost anywhere. It's not a snare until you put it together...and maybe I'm using it for rabbits :) I have a small games license. Man, Ontario is so restrictive.
The Wooded Beardsman See if fntpost.com ships to Canada!
Because it's about corporate greed and control. That is why they enslave humans with illegal licenses and regulations.
interesting but its illegal to use locking snares in the UK
Just do it
Oh yea...he' a 30 pounder!
Dumb question for you, I take my dog along whenm I check my snare line, will the smell of him turn the coyotes/ fox off of the trails I am setting on? I have already learned a lot from watching youe vids, thanks!!
Watch your dog. He will show you where to set your snares. You will learn a lot by watching where he walks, where he steps, etc.
The Meat Trapper I must be doing something right , I inadvertently caught him today!! So his being on the trails won’t make a difference? Thanks !
@@marktate4466 No difference at all. A snare that will catch a dog will catch a coyote, just give it a few weeks.
The Meat Trapper great, thanks again!!
You must stop trappings the animals suffer from your doings .
Should be really banded ....sad what you are causing .Sickening .
Go be an ignorant dumbass somewhere else.
Great video really good it is helpful already I am going to try to snare a few beaver this year. Looking forward to the next one
