It looks a bit early. Another 3 weeks or so and that would probably have been a good looking coyote. Meany

Season here dose not open till the 1st Saturday of Nov. . That is a nice looking one for the time you caught it.Like was stated if it was about a little later would of been better. Was it on a farm that needed to have them out? If so I do not blame you for take it out like you did.

Looks great! Trap em when you can. Congratulations on a yote the first check of your season! Keep up the good work. All the prey specie's appreciate it too.
Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine!

Not being mean. Just stating a fact.
Even in Idaho, the 9th of October is too early to start on coyotes. IMO. Hello wall!

Oh for crying out loud ya negative nancies. If he complains about fur grades in the Spring feel free to comment. Until then - say nice work and move on.
Way to go Marten Ted, jealous!

Negative Nancies seems to be especially appropriate in this case. LOL It maybe all right with you, but I think he is calling me a girl.

Good for you. I talked myself into waiting until after elk season. That started today, I don't know why I continue to hunt them, it is a lot of self induced misery.

The brave soul was wissmiss. First thing he says is "pretty male". Maybe she was trying to be educational instead of throwing up endless platitudes. I knew she was going get flack from the 94 percent.

Hey, first catch of the season for me too!! So where do you live that you can trap before Nov 1st ?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I'm with you, Marten Ted! I can't start until October 15th, but I will be setting some steel that day, fully prime or not. I just want to start trappin'! X2 X3 I have a market for my early furs, most coons in my coyote sets will be big boars, and a song as the coyotes are not covered in lice they will sell Got a few trail cams out prescouting and the coyotes are there.
Every day is a gift from GOD, don't waste it!!
If they have plenty of food, give them something interesting to smell

Then don't. I can assure you I will never be ashamed of myself for catching a coyote that will bring me 50 or more dollars. And I can almost garuntee it will.

Out season starts October 15th in Indiana. There will be a few fellas trying to catch our flat worthless coyotes then, but our Coyotes will never look like the Coyote you caught. With that said, your coyote looks extremely weak in and around the mane and shoulder area. Just call me a negative Donnie. I can't be put in the same category as Miss negative Nancy. The reason for that is, Nancy is probably the best fur grader on Trapper man. I will say this though, Nancy and I can talk fur and we both have great respect for each others fur grading ability. I have only been a fur buyer for almost 50 years and I have been called a lot worse than a negative Nancy. Good luck on your season and I hope you catch a zillion Coyotes. I’m with you, the first thing I said to myself is that coyote probably has shoulder mites and a big week spot in the shoulders. Take a pic of it skinned and show the back, I doubt it’s any where near a $50 coyote.

Good catch mted. Jeesh, I'll make sure not to post any pics of my catches during season. Wouldn't want to offend anyone if the fur quality isn't perfect.

Nice job. I haven’t decided if I’m setting next weekend or the one after. I was out checking on some prebaiting I’ve been doing and had one dart across the two track in front of me and stop at about 40 yards sideways. He looked great and will hopefully be bouncing around at the end of a chain shortly.

I don’t trap because I want to I trap because I have to
