Follow me as I explore the wilderness of interior Alaska. I'll show you how to set many different types of animal traps that will produce phenomenal fur. You will witness the Alaskan wilderness and breathtaking beauty that is the interior
Do you get head catches in the coffee can set years back in the 90s I saw a #10 can set using 110s there was actually a template to make tabs in such a way that the top of the trap jaws didnt actually move, so you would get high neck/ head catches and not have to worry about bringing the trap/animal home,but that was years ago the trapper claimed he trapped predominately in the black spruce Knolls,and actually did an experiment basically he cut one side of his trigger wire and put a hollow twig on the remaining wire and according to him his catch rate went nuts, it would seem like alot more work, but if you had them already baited and set ready to go might be pretty fast. Excellent content!!!😊
The one I have my buddy made for me. I’m not sure if there’s a place you can buy them. I’ll ask him when he gets out of the mountains if he would be willing to sell you one if u want
Great how to video with a couple different types of sets! I really like the visual of the cd hanging. Do you find it improves catch rate? I never thought of the visual aspect for marten but use it with lynx sets but never occurred that it’s one more sense of the animal so why wouldn’t it help.
Great channel guys . Liveing the life up in alaska I say. Hope you and family doing well toward Christmas 🎄 in few days . As of hunting lucks fun are you hunting with 12ga or 10ga ? Also where those sea ducks ? Good channel check out is Blue collar Outdoors USA these boys from NY do lot of deer hunting and duck hunting and gesse hunting and shotgun reviews and broadhead reviews.
Great shooting on those duck and great triple. @AlaskanBallistics share few of your video in the past. You got epic hunting up in Alaska . Never hunt duck my self I'm from Pennsylvania mustly a deer in turkey hunter and small game hunter love get into waterfawl maybe few years.
@@theealaskanviking5257 no problem at all. Share 2 your duck hunting video a bunch over on mewe hopefully it will help 🙏 . Have merry Christmas to u and the family . You happen get any tags in for draw for alaska herd they do soon ?
New to trapping. Live in Anchorage and have only got 2 marten so far. Are marten more active in November and December or are they relatively consistent through the end of season? Also, do you have better success with the skunky lure vs. a more mild non-skunky lure? Or is it all about the bait? Thanks.
Marten move in elevation pending on the weather and primarily stick to a 5 mi.² home range. I prefer the Skunky lure because it holds up better in negative weather. Bait is all about eye appeal. Keep stacking them and build on success
Very good video on multiple sets, best I’ve seen. Now a subscriber and fan. I use both Hellfire, ghusto and others I like are Skunk junk, and marten magic all are very good in cold temperatures here in far north Minnesota on Canadian border. I do add some feathers by some of my sets as well. Thanks and good luck to you👍
Been in alaska for 2 years and finally was able to duck hunt this season as I was still getting settled in last season. I'm in NorthPole/Fairbanks area and was wondering if you have any general suggestions of where to go in the south central area now that the interior is froze over. (Not asking for your hunting spots haha) I tried looking up info online but not much info outside of our general area.
@@theealaskanviking5257 right on. I was looking into valdez. I've been there once and not much time in Anchorage. I'm going to try to make it down there Veteran's day weekend or closer to Thanksgiving when I can get time off of work. I appreciate it.
Good video. I wish we could do that in our state. that would be illegal here in Wisconsin. Wisconsin got so many laws it makes it hard for us Trappers.
Love this idea. I think the only improvement would be to make the pig tail slightly open between the wraps then you could twist a snare wire on vs pre making them. But I guess it doesn't really matter as when you pull dogs out your taking down the snare and the support.
