  • In this second installment of the 2022/2023 trapping series I stay busy focusing on filling my deer tag. I also make my first run of the marten loop. When it comes to hunting and trapping there are no guarantees but persistence plays a huge part in ones success.

    Cant wait to see you snare uo some wolves. Other critters are always good to see. Wolves and Wolverines sre the ultimate prize in my opinion. Thanks for sharing

    You got some good bucks in the night cam. Just got to coax them into the freezer. I really enjoyed this episode. Not easy to boot hunt those bucks or freeze your bones in a tree stand. Thanks for sharing the adventure!

    Riley, a suggestion if I may. Try rattling and grunt calling every 15-20 mins. I started doing just that about 20 yrs. Ago and I have found it to greatly increase the amount of game compared to hunting without those tools in my arsenal. Thankyou for you hard work on creating your vids.

    • @nhmountains5683
      @nhmountains5683 Před rokem

      I agree on the rattling. On a calm cold morning Riley should try rattling. The bucks can hear that sound from 300 yards away and will come in to investigate. They’ll usually circle to try to get downwind of the sound. If they hang up try the can call.

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  Před rokem +1

      I didn't do much calling this year. I thought being quiet and waiting all day would lead to success. Next year I will certainly call more. Thanks for the tips! Take care.

    Another great video Riley. I can completely relate to all the effort that goes into finding what we all hope will be a prime spot for bagging a deer, the endless waiting game, the feeling of disappointment that can creep in and the thoughts bouncing around in your head like “should I move or stay put?”. All part of the magic of deer hunting and the very thing that keeps drawing us back. Makes the successes all the more special, if it were easy what would be the point?!?! 👍

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  Před rokem

      Yea the pursuit of game always brings me back. Quite an amazing feeling when you're finally successful too.

    I feel your pain Brutha. Hunted hard this year but no deer and no elk. I did manage to bag a couple antelope early on. So that takes the sting out a bit.

  • @johntheviking7273
    @johntheviking7273 Před rokem +3

    Try makin dinner outta some of the critters ya catch in the Trapline bud and maybe a sub par deer will look better to ya in the crosshairs and in the fry pan.

    Would love to know what your plans are for the marten furs. Thanks for this video, that was a nice segment with the PIP zoom in and your barrel in shot. Its an added difficulty trying to get the shot on camera too.

  • @holgerawakens7784
    @holgerawakens7784 Před rokem +3

    I think you have to help yourself out with deer hunting for next year by harvesting some of those wolves!! Question: At 3 pm on that final day, if a nice sized doe would have popped out on that trail, would you have taken her? Nice vid as always. I'm hoping you can get a few lynx this year.

    • @KuskWild
      @KuskWild  Před rokem +1

      I'm not sure if I would have shot a doe. I would've shot a small buck for sure.
      Hoping to get a few wolves and lynx this season. I'll certainly try my best. Thanks for watching!

    When you are hunting for grouse you see deer. When you are hunting for deer you see grouse. Wish those old Savages with a deer cartridge and a 20 gauge were still made. Then I'd get nothing.

    Questions: you say Fresh Wolf Tracks, then correct yourself that they're from a couple days ago. How does one know how fresh the tracks are?
    When you hunt in the snow, have you tried using the cadence of other animals so that when they hear you it sounds less like man and more like other animals? I've never hunted but I've heard of this idea from pretty successful hunters.

    I appreciate the outdoors and the animals in the video, but you need to put in more of the hunting and trapping, not just talking.
