I saw a study done on mink. It was a video taped mink box set using a 110 conibear with regular trigger wirers. A mink passed thru it 33 times before being caught, imagine how many times a mink could pass through a larger 160 before if ever being caught. Food for thought when deciding what size trap to use for mink.

i use to make blind sets for mink but i had an old trapper teach me something i would have never guest ,make a pocket set in the bank or out of rocks at the waters edge and usually on the right hand side of the river or creek looking the way the water is flowing if more than three feet across and bait it with fish that has been in a pail with a cover on it with a temp of 50 -70 degs for two weeks, where i live i get two five gallon buckets of herring two to three weeks before season opens and cut them into fist sized chunks i put the heads in one bucket and the rest in another after two to three weeks i add two to three cups of canning salt to each pail to keep them from aging and freezing, then when you make your pocket sets find a tree branch with a Y in it to pin your fish in the top and back of your pocket hole from 8 to ten inches deep slightly angled upword from the water, i'll tell you right now this works great but it will make you want to puke when you first try it after i started doing this i would catch from thirty to forty mink in the two weeks i had off for vacation from work each year another thing i used only 1 1/2 long spring traps for mink they held good and never broke any legs, plus i have also caught fox ,marten, fisher, racoon, otter,and believe it or not timber wolves in these pocket set, all my traps were wired off so the mink would drown, usually to the limb of elder brush hanging over the water with 14 gauge wire and only remember ever losing one trap. if you want to catch mink give it a try you will see just how good it works.

great sets we use smaller trap catch lot of muskrats. Save male nuts deep frye dip in ranch good eating sweet meat muskrat balls

Thank you for posting this content

Right on. Good instruction. I will be watching for more videos. I'm a trapper from Ontario

Any tips on setting them up near chicken pens?

Thank you for this educational video. I have never seen a conibear used like this. The deployment and its blind set should be deadly I would think. Thanks for a great new set to put in my arsenal!

Great how to on the sets 🙂👍👍👍

Very clear presentation, thanks.

Very Nice! Thanks for Sharing!

I prefer 120 and 110s but remember that triggers can be modified to catch even weasel

Great video!!!!

Nice set

Great video I am a trapper from West Virginia I have never caught a mink before.

What is all that green stuff around?

do you normally set them upward? is there an issue if you set them downward?

Anyone can do a demonstration at any time of year

The Mink will come right down the stream and slide right behind the big hole behind your trap

Hi Any ideas how i can catch mink on land (not water) without the risk of catching a rabbit ?? Thanks!

hope your mink is blind , would be better with a 1 1/2 dbl coil , will catch mink ,coon,otter where your limiting your catch
