I enjoy your videos, I like your commentary. I especially like that the younger generation is involved. Thanks for showing me your out of doors. Good luck with the wolves.

I love trapping anything too Abe ! But my marten I really try to take care of em on my line it's a nice feeling knowing you got lots on your line! Cheers buddy!
Abe, I don't trap wolves but snareing coyotes I've found its a lot safer to lean a pole across the trail and against a tree when deer are present. The deer typically go around a leaning pole but will crawl under a pole across the trail. Wolves and coyotes, at least the coyotes stay on the trail and will go under the leaning pole. Not 100% foolproof but better than across the trail. Hope this helps. Good Luck, Bob
I'm in Idaho, USA. Here, we have a 72 hour mandatory trap check. Sometimes things happen though and you can't get there. I try to check every 48 hrs, then if something go's wrong, I have an extra day. Even that doesn't always work. I like marten trapping. Since they reintroduced wolves here though, my main focus has been them. My first was 2017, then nothing until this year, then I caught 3! I have my traps pulled because of work and Christmas, but they will be back out soon!
Hi there! New friend here and enjoyed your video. Your channel has great content. Lets keep connected. Looks like the trapping season is fun. Much love from our family. Stay blessed❤️❤️❤️
Good to see you back out on the line 👍, I don’t have marten in my area so I have to watch other people catch them 👍, thanks for taking us along for the ride
Good to see your video. I finally got some 11x11’s on me they are powerful I tell ya but you already knew that. Can’t wait to catch something with them
Nice going !here in northern Michigan our regulations are just rotten,we can only catch 1 marten or 1 fisher it’s a joke ,hard to get fired up to get out and trap our snaring regulation are awful also, hope your liberals do not get elected up there to ruin your trapping rights like they did here. Good luck and fun to see you boys on the line
Boy, that first marten was fantastic! big and a great dark color. Question - why are you pulling marten traps after the first of the year - seems really early.
I don't check @ -30 anymore either; just too dangerous in the event of a breakdown or injury. And I, also, use my trap setters instead of just by hand; just makes life easier for an old fella! You have the best mitts I've ever seen! Merry Christmas!
Nice to see the Marten trapping video! This is my first season trapping Marten and I am also on private land as well. Looks like an excellent hunting spot hopefully the wolves don't mess it up too bad or if they do come around then hopefully your snare sets take care of some of them! Merry Christmas Abe.

Those regs. suck for you, but good luck anyway

The property I am trapping is only 320 acres and would be very easy to over trap.
@@abedriedgerAhh makes sense abe. Thanks for the info - keep up the great work, we really enjoy your videos
