Video Transcription

deadfall let me put this camera on the tripod and see how this thing works and I'll show you how to make you

very sensitive

alright guys let me show you how to make this split stick snare ah sorry split stick deadfall now for the size I mean it always depends on the rock it always depends on how what size the trap you want to make you know it's up to you so I mean I'm going to tell you the size what I use but doesn't have to be like that

sometimes you have to provide make it longer bait stick longer shorter you know but what you basically want or what I got is half inch piece of dry wood here in circumference diameter and it's about oh about 10 inches long now what you want to do is create a hole right nice little hole and then you want to have you want to solve this hole right in the center into so it comes apart like this then you want to have yourself a bait stick one for the one end for the bait the other end to put in to your hole that's going to hold these two pieces together now just a little tip once you've cut this second here once you've cut this you've made your hole and you cut it make yourself a mark to make sure you when you reput them you put them back at the same place and I took the bark on both sides here to mate to be sure that because this has to hold steady now once that's done right now if you can see this right here your whole time in the Sun once that's done and then you want to take your bait steak and put it in just so it's tight but not tight enough that it will separate the two of them together because you're going to have hard time setting this up now guys this trap is not easier than the figure-four deadfall right

most traps are not easy so you can practice this one it's very easy to remember and it's as effective as the figure-four deadfall all right so guys don't get discouraged when you practice this all right don't get discouraged because your rock falls on your hands a couple of times watch your fingers

practice will make perfect thanks for watching smoke will go sharks
