    Thank you! I appreciate your support! What an animal: meat, pelt, oil, castor, tail leather, and easy to get your hands on one with a little practice.

    Looking forward to the upcoming series! I haven’t sold any fur for money, as I am new to all this trapping, but I had a good friend buy me two MB-750s and one Belisle 330 for the pelt on ol’ trap foot from that video! I’ll say that’s a darn good pay day.

    Awesome tipJeromy ! Man those snares worked like a charm . Blackstrap is delicious and I agree it tastes a lot like beef ! In fact if you didn’t tell someone what they were eating I think they would be hard pressed to know they weren’t eating beef . Thanks for sharing my friend. Looking forward to the primitive trapping series

    Yes sir. Nice double on them beavers. +they was still alive. Your a trapper like you said. You don’t care where you catch them. You just need them to be there when you show up. Kansas cats you never know what you’ll catch. Good and bad. Most ever got out of a cat was $580. NAFTA. Best yote was $158 Raccoon was $58.

Reset the next morning had the 4th otter . In the snare that got pulled down. I fount a spot on this one big creek. It's a otter slide. I set a 220 in it. Camo the 220 with grass. That one trap has taken 7 otters . I set a snare for a beaver trying to snare a beaver around the neck. We can only use a 2 piece lock in the water. It was a death blow cam lock. I caught a otter in it. I had good luck with that lock dispatching the animal.

    I like the willow idea. I had to put myself into a survival situation without any of my normal things, so I thought why not try snaring beaver. It would be easy, but I couldn’t have support wire. After a few minutes I came up with this. I thought I was a genius, hahahahahah, but I’m sure that’s not the case. It’s been done before hahahahah
