jkcmj Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Nabbed my first coyote in a trap yesterday. 30 lb male. I used clear plastic wrap under the trap to prevent freezing to the snow, then a standard screen on top the trigger. I just covered with snow and secured to the tree scent post with a couple of 2 inch staples. I had to reset every couple of days to prevent freeze up of the jaws, but it worked. The second coyote to investigate the post got nailed. The 1st dug up part of one trap, and stayed away from that side of the tree.

jkcmj Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 Chalked up another one Saturday morning. Same set. Better not try making a living at this rate! 2 weeks to catch the 1st one, and then 3 weeks before the 2nd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkcmj Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 I stand corrected. 2 weeks between coyotes. Time flies when your having fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hey guys lets try to keep the pics tasteful!! I mean who wants to see that?! It turns my stomach, honestly. It totally ruins a good picture of a beautifully trapped coyote. Why would someone where a green bay packers coat? Gross!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
