  • I used this Paracord snare trap a lot during my 87 day surviving alone in Patagonia. Unfortunately there was nothing but fish to be caught and they never caught me anything. This is hopefully the first in a new series for my channel if you liked it let me know.

    Yes Yes Yes please do more. Talk in detail about the trigger mechanisms though and if they can be used for other engines. Great vid. I love your stuff. Thanks from the UK man

    • @innovationflow4437
      @innovationflow4437 Před 6 lety +3

      Thanks Fowler! Please do more snare/trap videos and PLEASE DO include the talking, its easier to " get" with an explanation, thanks!

    • @coryjohnson6817
      @coryjohnson6817 Před 6 lety +1

      Awesome video. Very easy and simple snare. I have seen other people that make it look so complicted but you made it easy to understand. Thank you for the video.

  • @thisluckybuck
    @thisluckybuck Před 6 lety +12

    A trap series would be awesome!

  • @sailboat7883
    @sailboat7883 Před 6 lety +2

    Yes, more traps and this one was awesome. Appreciate your time, and your giving back to the woodspeople who enjoy everything you share.

  • @madisonpoole7507
    @madisonpoole7507 Před 6 lety +12

    Loved the video style. I a bit more explaining on the knots or at least a resource of where to learn it would be awesome. I think in a survival situation food procurement is one of the biggest worries. Learning/relearning primitive traps is a great tool to keep in your toolbox. Thanks for the video

    Love to see how these stand up to live animals.

    • @joeschatz6617
      @joeschatz6617 Před 6 lety +2

      The Wooded Beardsman I guess the trapper has to pick the right size sapling, strong enough for the target species size. is that what you're referring to? Enough lift?

    • @FowlersMakeryandMischief

      @devildogsbushcraft7898 Před 10 měsíci

      Yes, I agree. Can you really rely on these to thrive. By the way. I think you would be a great contestant on either the alone show, or "naked and afraid". I've seen a lot of your videos and I know that you have the goods. :)

  • @Scotland_my
    @Scotland_my Před 6 lety +4

    Cracking video as usual. I'd be keen to see more traps and the explanation of how they work. They are banned in Scotland but knowledge weighs nothing and you never know where you'll be when you need it.

    this by far is my favorite , have been since fog horn leg horn . yup once they show us this on sat morning. I was hooked. Davey crocked, all these were the good shows. now sadly some youth never get taught these . keep up the good work. oh yes many pigions I caught in erie pa growing up.. and on my granparents farm well a few rabbits. lol

  • @mahtoeboyos5249
    @mahtoeboyos5249 Před 2 lety

    One flaw... Trim all the leaves and branches of your spring limb. It does two things... 1) speeds up your spring. 2) reduces the chances of wind blowing your spring limb around that can cause a false triggering.

  • @cdro670
    @cdro670 Před rokem

    Wow I remember my older cousin showing me how to make these traps as a kid, trapping feral chickens with them, I think I was 10 years old. we put rice/seeds around the trap and we would get them every time. I wonder where he learned this from, we were born and raised on a small tropical island called "Saipan"Northern Mariana Islands!

  • @pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358

    Excellent demo and video Fowler... great job!

  • @AdrianGarcia-bz6br
    @AdrianGarcia-bz6br Před 6 lety

    Yeah!! I like this trap!! I got me that 4-in-1 tool too (shovel, Trimmer, Knife, Mallet). Super efficient.

  • @trendinvestor2893
    @trendinvestor2893 Před 6 lety +10

    I like the video, but I think maybe you should go a little slower with some of the parts and provide a little more detailed explanation. It would have been nice to have a little more explanation of how you were doing the triggering system. For example, you might want to say the toggle stick needs to be flat on this one side and be about 3 inches long and you don't want to cut it like this but you want to cut it here etc.

  • @GrandpaRedRum
    @GrandpaRedRum Před 4 lety

    • @northwoodsrat6686
      @northwoodsrat6686 Před 6 lety +1

      Chase Crowe , very cool hearing that your generation still enjoys these activities that you listed ! Those things are what I did after school almost every day growing up in the beautiful woods of northern Vermont in the late 60s and 70s , and wouldn't trade those memories for the world . You won't regret it either especially when you are older and may be occupied with the increasing pressures and time constraints of life such as family , job and home responsibilities . Wish I had You Tube back then instead of having to learn much of that bushcraft lore many years later when I now have less time to get outside to practice those skills . All the best .

  • @Haerleif
    @Haerleif Před 5 lety

    Yes, more of this !

  • @theelusivewoodlandhobo5348

    Wondifferus ....Heck yea bro find and do any and every trap you can research ...and then invent some Fowler improved versions , Like the trap you just did but with a heavy log way up in the tree (instead of bent sapling) so when the trap snares it pulls it (little fluffy pink energizer bunny) up in the air to the limb the cords hung over into sharp sticks tied to the limb. POW GOES THE DYNAMITE!!!! LOL great vid bro keep em coming ....god bless you ZACK

    • @FowlersMakeryandMischief
      @FowlersMakeryandMischief  Před 6 lety +1

      thanks i will keep them coming ! good idea on the fluffy bunny

    • @theelusivewoodlandhobo5348
      @theelusivewoodlandhobo5348 Před 6 lety

      Thanks!...if you do "tweak" some versions or invent some new ones, even if they dont work out I think you and us will have a blast going threw the trial and error process.....Thanks bud have a blessed day bro.... off subject ...have you ever watched the u-tube channel "Northmen" if you havent i think you like em ...they reminded me of "the happy people" you reference sometimes

    I love all of your videos, but I do enjoy these survival type videos more. I would also enjoy some woodworking type videos, like boats or furniture, since I know you have the skills. Even better, some wilderness type woodworking, like how to make joinery for shelter or furniture with your survival tools. No matter what, keep making videos that you enjoy, because it is always fun to watch you having fun.

    Hey Fowler I like this format the only thing I wouldn’t mind adding to this content wise would be to name the knots used when making the loops and what have you. This way we can go back and research how to tie the knots in detail if needed. Keep up the great work. Thank you.

  • @WinStunSmith
    @WinStunSmith Před 6 lety +1

    Trapping videos are a great idea. In a true survival situation, you would likely be malnourished and weak, making active hunting quite difficult. Knowing how to make effective snares would definitely be a useful, potentially life saving skill.

  • @drceballos
    @drceballos Před 6 lety +1

    Fun video Zach! Great to see you in the woods again. I do miss the taking at the beginning setting up/introduction of the video, maybe some voice over or text in the middle while making the trap. Great admiral ackbar “it’s a trap” clip at the end. I’m a Star Wars nerd too.

    Yeah Zack , this would be a great subject for more vids . I enjoyed this a lot and evidently others did as well . Fascinating subject material , great editing and camera work , good music , excellent slow - motion close - up action footage and a clever scripture reference to boot ! As someone who has already learned some of the basic design principles behind these cool survival traps , I thought you showed quite well , especially with the slo- mo , how this one worked , but after reading some of the comments , I can understand why some made requests for you to explain in a bit greater detail the hows and whys of building these in any future snare making vids . All the best ! VT Rat (;-)

  • @sageseeger2337
    @sageseeger2337 Před 6 lety +2

    @adreabrooks11 Před 6 lety

    I definitely enjoyed the trapping/fabrication part of the video. As to your question about talking: I do like how concise you've made it by not following along in real-time. However, my preference would be for a little more explanation at some of the key points - i.e. explaining the actual trap mechanism, why you chose to place the stakes at the points you did, the actual mechanics of a 7-stick-and-toggle mechanism and so on. Perhaps a happy medium, where you explain the important bits and then fast-forward through the trimming, cutting and digging would be optimal. However, that's merely one viewer's opinion. Keep up the great work!

  • @oldgeekster1
    @oldgeekster1 Před 6 lety +2

    Enjoyed this format. Would like to see a recreation of every trap & trigger you attempted in Pategonia that wound up on the cutting room floor. A shame they don't realize how many folks find this kind of thing incredibly interesting - they seem to prefer to show suffering instead..

  • @Q-BinTom

    @urbangunsurgeon Před 6 lety +1

    I have recently subscribed after discovering you and i enjoy each and every video you post.
    I live in the uk so your presentation and approach to video making is refreshing to me.
    Plus your bushcraft / catty skills are insanely good.
    Lol i have recently purchased a catty from watching your vids and plan to buy a cold steel shovel asap lol.
    I liked the video and would like to see more, but i prefer it when you talk us through the process, within like 50 odd seconds into the vid i was thinking hey wheres that crazy voice gone lol
    Im kinda new too bushcraft and felt myself thinking when the vid finished that i need to re watch it as i dont feel confident i learnt as much as i could from just a 1 time watch.
    So from that angle you will up your views but from a viewers perspective i was left wanting more 🤓
    Either way i hope to see more vids in this series.

  • @GWHcraig1088
    @GWHcraig1088 Před 6 lety +1

    I was taught to always clear of any other branches and leaves so it has less wind resistance when sprung. leaving yourself just a bent pole basically. but at the same point it is slightly more obvious to the eye.

    • @FowlersMakeryandMischief

I look forward to seeing more!!

    Dk if I liked you taking the "primitive technology" approach to narration in the first part of the vid, but sometimes it is indeed better to show instead of tell. Overall it's a cool trap! Keep em coming man!

    It's legal in some states. I trap this way legally. I you are foot snaring medium sized game, limit you loop size. Nice video.
