Trapped my first Coyote today using a leg trap in front of a post with some lure and red fox piss on it. This guy did a number on the site; their was a bush their the post was in front of too keep 'em from coming from behind. I caught this guy in the same pasture the cows are in so it was good to get this one out of their. Anyways I just started trapping and I have been trying to learn as much as possible and my goal was to catch at least one coyote this summer. Enjoy

nice, is that a 2 and 1/2 trap ?

Nice, keep up the good work.

good job young man! First of many I hope

I think it's bigger than that. Good job on the yote. Set your goal higher for the summer. Kill them all. Although the pelts aren't worth a flip right now.

nice

That's a Duke #3 only mods are #2 chain and 6guage j hooks added

Good job!

nice broski

Congrats! It a pleasure catching a coyote the first time and is an accomplishment to say the least!

Trapped for USFWS & TDA back in the early 80's professionally as a depredation trapper.

Again, nice job!

what lure did you use? where did you get it? Great catch!

I used cavens violator-7 along with red fox urine to snag this one; and I purchased these and some Dobbins lures from the website: fntpost.

Nice job!


Few weeks ago I was driving home and saw a yote in a field 50 feet from the road. Pulled over, he just stood there, opened the door, still there, walked to the fence with my pistol out, still standing there, fired one shot, he was laying there.

Shoot all of them I see as long as the backdrop is safe.

That's awesome!

i have a den of them in the creek behind my house...anyone have any suggestions how to get rid of them? cant really hunt them in the city without a suppressor...

Update: Trapped another coyote in the same spot and lost one. Here is the guy I caught. Really a better looking coyote.

coyote trapping is addicting, I caught 92 last year and caught my 18th and 19th this past weekend for this year so far, I hit them hard while mule deer hunting in the fall in Gaines/Andrews county - catch 8-10/day usually - have more fun catching coyotes than chasing 200" muleys, i'll usually chase muleys for about 2hrs in the am, check/set traps all day and then chase muleys the last two hours of the day, makes for a lot of fun, usually get out about 25-40 sets depending on how my bad back is doing, spend some time on trapperman.com, you will learn a lot, congrats on the coyotes - i'm always itchin' to see a coyote twitchin'

Congrats! It is addicting to try and make an animal put its paw in a patch of ground about 4"x4".

BINGO

Set a blind set 2 days ago. Yesterday morning this is what I found.

Congrats on the trappin'!

what is this that???.. leg.. tail???

I set this trap on a trail coyote's were using, looks like a rabbit was also using the trail and got caught before the coyote. I'm guessing a coyote did happen by at some point and got a free meal.

It's a rabbit's foot.

Hope you didnt keep that rabbits foot it doesnt look so lucky
