Dedicated to passing on as much knowledge as we can about the art of trapping. Contrary to popular belief, there is a need for trappers/outdoorsmen in order to help the ecosystem to thrive. Overpopulation often results in the spread of disease among wildlife. Hopefully, the BTT channel will help the novice just getting his/her start as well as the professional. We can all learn from each other. Tight chains my friends!
I thought that was a great idea. Who cares what others think and say. That's usually the worlds cowards anyways. Animals do deserve mercy. Its humans im wonder about at times? 😊
I agree with all the man said and did, and if you did as well, so as not to mess with your present mood, don't read the rest of this post. Thing is, this and other such animals don't deserve to die, there is no sin in doing as they must do to live, as in eating, so the Lord has nothing against them. Little is given to animals, as in brain power, so little is ecpected of them. Sure, there is an excellent point to what happened here, its just a shame its isnt taken a step further. Fact is, Jesus is willng to forgive and save not just one, but all of us, and since people are the only real guilty parties here, at least in the realm were speaking in, all animals should be allowed to live unless they are mankillers...also biblical. However, we were given dominion over the animals, and though I doubt I could ever do this type work, I get it. I only wish there was a better way. Actually there are ways these animals could live out ther lives, but it takes money, and even though there are lives at stake, it looks like the cheapest way to handle this, at least for the moment, is the way people choose to handle it...aint that always the way. Either way, no judgment here, but did want to add a few points, and remember, I did warn you. Peace. (Excuse me now I have the sudden urge to hug a tree. Guess im just getting old, at least that's the only ecuse I can think of for all this.
Great thing letting him go, I could counter EVERYTHING you state without getting personal. I too WAS a hunter trapper...WAS...too often we fall for the bs spewed by agencies claiming animals are the problem, costing farmers, insurers, etc ...MONEY...Sometimes its human expansion causing the problems. ...God bless you for putting faith and family ahead....
Today is March 12, 2024 and I just witnessed one of thee most beautiful and honorable acts in my life time! This man stepped out of the bounds of ordinary and stood the shadow of a track made by Jesus! God will have Mercy on those who display Mercy! Thank You Sir, and Semper fi
Never understood why folks want to kill coyotes so much. Because of deer, their chickens, their dogs? All they do is what they were made for. Yet the same folks will let a child molester walk among us.
Biggs where are you man? you made some of the best trapping videos. How you layer and salt a set changed the game for me. Come on back and give us some trapping videos brother!
I haven’t set a trap this season and set sparingly last season. Life’s priorities don’t allow for it right now, but I’ll get back out there soon, Lord willing! Tight chains!
What works for me , I get the peat moss at the start of the growing season and put it in a barrel and will dry out . Be ready for the season and I only sift it when I put it over the trap after I bed the trap in it . What I mean is that after i got my stakes in the ground and have the trap open ready to set I put a layer of peat moss on the ground and then I I bed my trap , The peat moss is not sifted any sticks in the way I take them out other wise I just bed the trap in it and make sure it dose not move in any way , then I put my pan cover that is waxed paper that is under the loose jaw and then I sift the peat moss over the trap. after I get what I need . I use dry dirt over it or small stains of grass to cover it . Depending on the type of set. There is some brands of peat moss you will see it is mainly clean and do not need to do anything. Other is like in the video .This works for me . Just to give some ideas . But like in the video . Make sure your peat moss is dry before use .
What about putting wax paper down first, instead of that rock salt? I saw that in a video and tried it today. My first two coyote sets ever. Also, I saw a video where a guy put his trap inside a ziplock bag with a hole punched in the bottom to allow the chain out. What's your opinion of that? Love your videos. Thanks.
Good for you. I know this video was posted some time ago, and to tell you the truth, I have no idea how I ended up here. But, we are guided to be where we need to be at the time we need to be there. The coyotes really don't matter and for this particular story they are insignificant. We all have lessons to learn and skills to perfect before we can move on and be judged by our maker. You Sir, are on a path of learning and growing. Contrary to popular belief, life is not about compromising. Life is about sacrificing. Bless you Brother.
I trapped at a minimum last season and haven’t trapped at all this season. Life’s priorities are different for me right now, and I haven’t had time to trap. I’ll be back at it at some point in the future, good Lord willing!
