I found this dude on youtube...If you want to see a real view of running a trapline this is it.
I trapped for several years so I can really relate to these videos. He talks about his circuit being 30 miles long;
my trapline was under ten miles and at that I was busy trying to keep up with the skinning chores...
He seems to be trapping a lot more predators than I was; my bread and butter was under-ice beaver which
is hugely labour intensive. He is up in the NWT, getting lynx and wolverine which is something I never got either.
He calls himself The Wild North and seems to have lots of videos..
