5 below and not much wind tonight,i think there will be a coyote or two looking to fill their belly tonight.I'm guessing one or two might run into some cable or the 2 traps I have out.

I might snare a few beaver under the ice later,basement is mostly empty now,dropped off the fur's for the NAFA pick up last night.Going to keep a few coyote snares out a little longer,seeing that fox yesterday with no rub changed my mine for another week.Heading out now to see if I have any yotes just hanging around for me.

I've had three baits out for coyotes since the middle of December and not one single hit. Lots of tracks in the area, but with this lack of snow and the apparent abundance of mice the coyotes just aren't interested. If I don't have at least a foot of snow on the ground, I seldom have coyotes interested in large baits.

No new tracks the last couple of days other than wolves at the one place,those hay sets do have eye appeal but they need to come back through to see if they'll work.Running out of time here shortly and good fur.

Rick do you use drags with your hay sets or stake your traps down?

Yes. I'm not traveling at all this year, just not worth it with the lack of snow and disinterested coyotes. We only have about 1" of snow right now.
