Default The Life Of A Beaver Trapper

It's a cool video but I wish they had let him talk about some of his trapping techniques.
That would have been much more interesting.

I just wish they had let him say more of what he knows.

He is one of the best trappers I know, way better then I am. I think he would have some very interesting things to say.

It's hard for me to imagine that not so many years ago I was teaching him the little I know, now he could teach me a lot from what he knows.

This is the guy that, when he broke his foot and couldn't hunt, he disguised himself as a chimney, climbed up on the roof of his garage, and managed to bag half a dozen geese from there.
I would not be so inventive nore as dedicated to the pursuit. LOL
I'd sit in front of the TV till my foot healed.

Let's hope he makes more videos. I have no doubt that they would get better once he gets comfortable being on camera.

Like to see more of his video's. Always more intresting when it's close to home.
Says his trapline is in the Caribou mountains, you know what area?
