I was not implying it is not a rare colored coyote . It is a very nice one for sure .I only ever caught a few .I was just using the same words as you did to describe it .When I see one it my set is always looks good .

No problem.

Ebsurveyor had a wagon load of red ones...lol

Was gonna post a couple more pics but theres a problem. Might be on my end...

Still wont let me post pics....

I can post pics again!!!

This is a set of sheds landowner found on one of the properties I'm trapping. Given a modest spread measures gross 172"

Catch has been slow past 2 checks..a couple beavers, 1 coyote, 1 coon, several possums.

Pulling tommorrow and headed home...I'm tired.

be safe and thanks for the ride.

Thanks for the ride and instructions. Setting traps on a place this week that’s about identical to what you are leaving. Safe travels!

Enjoyed the ride and pictures And your theory about remakes is certainly worth some thought Thanks

Swamp I’m just curious, are you setting the up wind edge of the road on those straight aways or are you going to the middle of the road in case of a wind change ? Don’t know how much traffic your getting if any, just seems like the middle of the road would be safer for the bridgers,lol .

Thanks for the ride along! Great thread!

whens your next ride along???????

I do sometimes pay attention to the wind but not much as it changes so often. I pay more attention to where I see tracks and put set in as close as possible.... within inches of the tracks. I have set the middle of the road if there is some grass clumps for backing..my favorite spot.

Our fur season ends last day of February so this is likely my last run until next winter...unless I get a coyote or beaver call from somebody with some money..lol

Just got back from giving most sets a shot of fox/bcat urine. Rained this morning and clear now with temps dropping tonight...should be a good predator night.

Good luck! I've had enough for a while. The warmer temps and rain makes coyote trapping a challenge. Plus I dont like trapping as much when everything but coyotes and beaver have to be released starting March 1st.

Enjoyed, especially since we've been getting drowned with rain for a week and I pulled my sets, it gave me something to check everyday. Lol. Liked the looks of that red yote

Care to share any numbers? Like how many trap nights, how many animals

[quote=RM trapper] since we've been getting drowned with rain for a week and I pulled my sets,

Wished I would of pulled mine since we have had 9.31" of rain this past week. I had bobcat sets under 6ft of water.

Thank you for taking us along. Loved it. Great job and congrats on your success.

Swamp, do you see any nice heavily used game trails? that are entering or passing the roadways before the intersections? I figure the critters are rounding off the corners and not going all the way to the end, putting their blinker on, and then turning. Kind of like the green dots, or "trails" I added to this photo of yours...?
