Really great and informative pics Andy. These pics and info really should be archived. Thanks Andy

Great pics Andy! And GORGEOUS COUNTRY!

nice pics Andy.

on a side note, there is a custom bullet maker that is building some "new" .17 cal bullets.
when done,he's gonna send me some for testing on coyotes so i'll most likely have to go out and do some summer calling for test results.

awesome as always andy. look forward to your posts! keep after um brother!

Here are a couple of sets LT and I put in the other day.

BOOYAH BRI! wish i was there!

Cattle trail coming out of the pasture where the kill took place to the high ground denning area.

Here is where the trail flattens out on the first bench, walk thru set lured up with my natural born killer and droppings on rock.

A sweet, mild food lure under the rock on the right, fresh droppings on left.

The den is almost to the top and out of site from here.

good size track to the right of this #2, I set on tracks all morning.

small grass clumps in place for stepping guides.

finished set.

Different set. Grass guides in place.

Walk thru dropping set, gland lure on the left since the left side had better natural backing.

I backed out of there brushing out my tracks and lightly sprinkling urine. Yes I use urine like a trail scent. It might not be right but you'll never convince me its wrong. Now its time to let them sit and check from a distance.

thats coyote trapping right there andy!!! love that walk through! your grass guides look great and i love that terrain

I wish we had that type of soil around here Andy! Man, that stuff looks made for trap bedding!!

Nice sets Andy ...Thanks for sharing!

Glad to post them fellas, right now this ground is a dream to trap in but come November you couldn't hardly dent it with a axe. lol getting the sets in early is the key to trapping this country.

Thanks for the pics Andy, I love seeing pics of set construction.

Andy,
What make and model is the dogless trap(above) pictured?

The new victor/monty #2 FOJ 2 coil model with small 4 coils added to stock spring pin.

Darn it guys how's a fella to get any work done with TWO really great threads on 2 different forums? Thanks LT and Andy. NICK

Andy & LT,

Andy,

is your trap bed at an angle leading into your dirt Hole?

with your walk thru, is the trap between the two rocks and or droppings?

LT,

what's the white objects you are using as guides?

Thanks for another awesome thread.

If you are referring to the pics that I posted, those are eggs. The set is supposed to look like a turtle nest that has been dug up. And the eggs are not really guides, but more for eye appeal.

Awesome.....Thanks for the reply and sharing with other trappers.

One dog down and another one to go.I killed the male today, he worked a step down set that I had baited with my cat meat bait with skunk mixed in. I have found that cows and calves don't mess with it like other lure and baits. Saturday they moved the cows out and I gave all the sets a good shot of coyote urine. Held him solid in a new Victor/Monty dogless #2.

Here was the location, Dead calf at top of pic and set in bottom left.

Dead coyote! The rancher shot him as I hate having blood at my set but that's the way it goes. I drug him off and covered him with sage brush and dirt and then made a urine post set along the trail using his bladder urine and my gland lure. We will see if she comes looking for him.
