Ok I know this has to be a question that had been asked, however DVDs are an always evolving medium.
What trappers make the best DVDs?
Who are your favorites, and why?
Which guys are the most thorough?
Which DVDs have the best content?

I'll be picking up a couple DVDs one coyote, one beaver.
I would just choose some based off of random supply shop reviews but there are literally 100s of DVDs on these topics from a few dozen trappers.
And they are not cheap..

I recently got to see demos from Rusty Johnson, Wayne Derrick, and Lee Stinemeyer that were packed full of info. So I'm interested in checking out some other videos.
So if y'all would share your thoughts, reviews, and ideas on trappers and their DVDs for these two target animals it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I have coyote videos from several trappers, not a dudd in the bunch. But the ones I learned the most from where from Mark June and Rusty Johnson, Wayne Derrick, and Andy Weiser. You may also want to consider some instruction in print. Two very good books by Ed Schneider, [Coyote Trapping Proven Methods from Kansas and One Square Mile]. Also Slim Pedersens Problems and Solution series are highly informative. Jc Conner's dvd's are also full of info. Hope this helps.

Yes that does help. I was very impressed with Rusty Johnson, however I cannot find a DVD one of his. Would you happen to know where I might find his information?
I believe Andy Weiser only has the one coyote DVD that I could find, it is in the running for sure.

Nevermind... A little bit of reading and it is clear that Rusty is in Mark June's DVDs.

Casey Payne & Trent Masterson - Trapping the High Plains is a good one too, Lee Ruewsaat, Matt jones, Dobbins & Dunlap are some others.

I'll look into these guys. I am definitely considering Lee Reuwsaat's DVD, he was a pretty cool guy, and I have seen some great reviews or his skills here on Trapperman..

If anyone knows of a good beaver trapping DVDs with a good amount of info on foot holds please let me know

Thanks

All the above and Land Trapping Techniques by Charles Dobbins. I read that book till the pages fell out. His beaver book is real good too. I've learned something useful from every DVD or book I ever read!

I've never seen any beaver trapping videos, but Andy Weiser is the best I saw for western coyotes and Randy Smith is the best for Eastern/Midwestern Coyotes. Good luck with your next buy. Its hard to go wrong with anyone who makes their living off trapping.

I've watched ALOT of videos and Mark June's 1st yote video is my favorite and learned a ton.Now,I haven't seen Andy or Wayne Derricks.To be honest I have good luck with June's methods.At some point too many DVDS could be a curse trying to mesh too many different styles.Little tricks are great to pick up but I always go back to June's methods

Dobbins for beaver-

I would not get either. Instead, get a copy of Charlie Dobbins book "Beaver and Otter Trapping" and also Hal Sullivans Otter 2000 and his beaver book. Everything you need to learn is in those copies.

I will pick up both books.. they are both pretty cheap from Minnesota trap at the moment. So they will be a great read k am sure.
I am thinking about Andy Weiser's DVD vs. Mark June's set vs. Lee Reuwsaat's coyote set. Seems like a lot of cash to put out for a few DVDs. However doing a bit of research you can see that there is well over 15 hours of expert coyote trapping advise in all 3 of their DVDs sets.
I can only afford one DVD up front. So looks like June's reducing the numbers will be first followed by Weiser's Western coyote trapping. That DVD is 3 hours long. Well worth the 40$ to get it.

Still want info on what DVDs you folks prefer and why.

Thanks

Andy Weiser and Lee Reuwsaat dvd are top notch. Trent Masterson and Casey Payne's dvd is a waste of money.

LDW, can you give us more info on the Casey Payne and Trent masterson video? Thanks!

The only problem I had with the Casey Payne DVD was the constant ad placements flashing in the bottom right of the picture. I know you gotta pay the bills but don’t make us sit through a 2 1/2 hr commercial . It was super annoying.

I watched it again this morning. I guess its not as bad as I first thought. Still not one of my favorites.

I Would seriously look at matt jones hardcore coyote dvd

I am a big mark june fan. His sets are simple and make sense, i like his coyote and bobcat dvds. He keeps me interested though the hole dvd. I just got kyle kaatz water trapping dvd so i will see how it is.

Mark June for the win.
Still need a good beaver DVD.
I have been reading the archives lately and it is a fact that Paul Dobbins has a ton of beaver info. So his book will be here soon.

Kirk dekalb has a lot of info in his catching the numbers beaver dvd.
