Hi everybody! hope y’all’s winter is going well. I’ve had a few injuries that kept me off the Trapline but I’m back out there. This is the first of 4 videos I’ve filmed so far this season. God Bless

Glad to hear you're all healed up.

Those RGB's sure do make an inviting looking hole for those cubbies
Looking forward to riding along with your video adventures again this year.
God bless and take care.

Awesome, Awesome video!!! Thank You EG for letting us ride along. I hope all is well with you and doing well. I have been wondering if you were going to stop back here of late and here you are. Thank You.

Nice video EG,Looks like you have some good conditions in the bush this year.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Thanks. I found out I’ll need hip surgery some time into the future, but we’ll roll with the punches:

Yeah I like the trap. I scooped up a lynx on my Saturday trap check out of that trap. I have 3 Trapline check videos filmed so far. Take care

Yeah I got airlifted out of Venetie a few days before Christmas and found out later that my chronic back pain hid damage in both hips to the point that I need a double hip replacement. At 35 years old I’m not sure yet how long the process will take to set it up. Lord willing I can find a surgeon that can help without the complete replacement. I never mentioned it on here or really on YouTube either. Maybe I’ll make a post some time here. Thanks for asking my friend. God bless

Yeah I was down for awhile but I’ve had traps out for about 3 weeks, just not as many sets as I would normally. But we’ve caught a wolverine, 3 lynx, and 2 marten so far

It’s a 2020 Skandic Wide Track 600 ACE.
This wide track has a 20” width
It is an electric start only. It is a downside but keep the battery in good contrition and it’s not a problem.

Oh yeah this depth of snow is perfect for trapping. We warmed up from -65 Fahrenheit on Saturday to -15 this morning, I really can’t complain. Thanks for watching

Nice share, EG. I hope you find success and relief asap with your pain issue. At least you can now have a plan and goals for this .

The only other guys that young I have known are the rodeo bull riders here ... sports injury treatments have come a long way. You will find a good doc that can help.

One of the only trappers I watch/follow. You and Andrew (the Wild North). Great stuff from both of you.

I really like your positivity grounded by faith...even when things aren't going so well. That's not always such an easy thing to do.

Thanks. Some time I’ll do a video explaining a bit more but not until I get a second opinion. I appreciate it. God bless

Yes Andrew is a another fine channel. I subbed to a number of people. Next gen trapper is excellent as well.

It along with other video's on here says it won't open "must disable "restricted mode". Any help out there on this?

Good stuff! Does your sled keep the battery topped up while you’re driving?

Wild north and Muskrat 411 were prolly the first two channels I subbed to when I first got into YouTube years ago. I just subbed to Next Gen Trapper. Wow a hundred raccoon in one day is awesome!
