  • I will show a real snare set up and then look at a small wire snare and then a 550 cord snare, and you will not be impressed. I hope your not if you really ever need to catch your own food.

    " He is going to chew through the some type of root thing you spent seven hours weaving together...." ,. Clint has a way with words, and he cracks me up when he is getting down on something that is stupid.

    Great job Clint ! Looking forward to the next episode. I watch some of these shows and I'm really surprised at what they're trying to figure out after they've gotten there. Scott

    I posted your videos on reddit survival forum and they aren't doing so well. There's piles of resistance, but I'm on your team here. I wanted to see how they would react and it's not pretty! Keep them coming....just be ready in case they bother to show up...doubt they will, but you never know. They seem quite adamant that primitive traps work....

      You should ask them to post pictures of how many coyotes, beaver or otters they catch per day. I'd also ask them to post pics of their trapping licenses - after all, if they are actually out trapping animals they must have a license. lol.

      Thats ok, I can only help those that want to be helped. I understand that if someone believes something to their core, it is hard to listen or even watch evidence that challenges deep held belief.

    • @TheWoodedBeardsman
      @TheWoodedBeardsman 7 лет назад +3

      If they can't produce any evidence otherwise, then I'm going to go with the person who can....and since I don't have the expertise myself, right now that's you guys. So really, I'm doing my due diligence for my own sake! Keep up the good work. I'm going to go over to Meat Trapper and watch his videos where he talks about the basics, because honestly, I don't even know how to start as this is all new to me.

    • @TheWoodedBeardsman
      @TheWoodedBeardsman 7 лет назад +2

      They won't because they can't! They just put it back on me to prove how it's always impossible in every instance...which is just silly.

  • @hillbillynick2000
    @hillbillynick2000 7 лет назад +3

    Keep it coming! Maybe you should show a cable snare after a catch. If the animal can do that kind of damage to aircraft cable imagine what cordage/wire would look like!

    @kencollins7046 7 лет назад

    These are great videos, thanks Clint. Survivalists want to advise what to do for survival without thinking things through. Even though Im new to trapping, I feel certain the primitive snare would never be a viable option for me while there are better products like cable. As a matter of fact, worst case if something were to happen where we had to survive, I'm not sure snaring would be an option because of cost and the low success rate. They are a one time use only, often takes lots of them to set many trails for success (got 8 real snares out right now for a week in well used hog trails out of a thick swamp and have yet to catch one so Im getting hungry!), and just more costly than other trap options. For long term survival for a family of 4, I need a trap that can be baited to draw in more animals to one location, catch large game like deer and hog on a consistent basis, and can be used multiple times over and over without needing to buy more parts or put money in it. Any suggestions?

    keep them coming another idea that would be handy I think if you keep in your pack some conibear traps if you're in a long-term situation that is one trap you can use over and over snares work great but unfortunately they are a one-time-use most the time

    Thank You!!! I always thought the 550 "snares" wouldn't work and tried to tell people that and they wouldn't believe me. That;'s why I researched REAL trappers vids to learn (That's how I came across you and the Meat Trapper.

    Primitive trapping can work in very limited circumstance (see Shawn Woods) and as you said it can be a fun hobby but should be relied upon for calories.
    If I had to go live in the woods for a year and carry everything in without regard for game laws... To support meat foraging per person I'd suggest 4 110s, 4 120s and 10 locking metal snares, including 2 that were very large, along with 12 or 16 gauge stainless wire. Could I kindly have your suggestion?

  • @Prepare2Survive

    Some places it's illegal to carry a real snare or conibear trap. What do you think is the best thing to carry in those situations? Maybe heavy duty fishing leaders ?

    • @Prepare2Survive
      @Prepare2Survive 7 лет назад

      Yeah, the steel ones is what I was thinking about. If you like the idea I would like to see how you would make a set with one. Thanks

    I respect your trapping skills and knowledge . You are humorous and entertaining, and make a lot of great points concerning survival traps on youtube. Cable snares are the way to go. However, snaring a feral house cat with paracord would not even be a challenge. Keeping cats out of my baited para cord sets has proven more of a challenge. I realize you are addressing the much larger topic of sustainable long term survival, to which I agree.

  • @Jut3333

    I agree with what your saying but I also know primitive traps work. people long before us trapped with primitive traps.

    • @Meattrapper
      @Meattrapper 7 лет назад +6

      Under perfect conditions, primitive traps can catch an animal. The issue is not whether or not a primitive trap can work, the issue is whether or not primitive traps are capable of sustaining life. In my opinion, they are not which is why native peoples ran deer and buffalo off cliffs and into pits.

    • @wolfernation
      @wolfernation  7 лет назад +2

      I understand they can and have been used, this issue is for them to be consistent, which they are not. There is not enough time in a week to set enough primitive traps to catch enough to meet daily requirements. As soon as native americans could use and get there hands on steel snares, they switched on a dime. If they could catch beaver with primitive traps, why does all the reference material i found says they clubbed them. In cold water that is a sucky day to wait on beaver to come out of a den then try to club them.
      The point is not a war on primitive traps, the point is that is a person or family need to catch animals for whatever the reason, use the methods one can and primitive is very low on that scale.

    • @Jut3333
      @Jut3333 7 лет назад

      The Meat Trapper I understand, I'm just saying you would never just rely on one method but primitive trapping is a big part since you don't have to use a whole lot of time to walk hunt and use a lot of energy.( not saying trapping is easy) Pit falls , fish traps , snares. I know we today are not capable of doing what primitive people did cause we lost a lot of knowledge. But give some Indians a hatchet and he could survive with hunting , foraging and trapping. That's all I'm saying.

    • @TheWoodedBeardsman
      @TheWoodedBeardsman 7 лет назад +2

      I think the main point which is getting missed is that primitive traps MIGHT have sort of worked a little bit in the past where the animals were much more abundant and competition from other people much lower, but they won't work anymore. I thought primitive traps were cool and started learning about them. I also tried primitive fishing hooks, set lines, cane poles, weirs and gorge hooks. Then I went out and tried them and even caught a fish - almost my first cast. Then for 45 minutes I struggled to catch another fish. I switched back to modern gear and caught my limit. Point is, that they work, but not near good enough to replace the energy burned making them. I also tried to live off the land with modern fishing gear and a canoe...I found that this was impossible and I suffered a lot. I couldn't imagine trying to do this with primitive gear. I think if you actually go out and try this, you'll find out that it's more an exercise in starvation than thriving.

    A lot more missing cats and dogs and more flyers of missing dogs and cats around the neighborhood is going up since Asian have seen you snaring tactics. Thx
