Just talked to Robert 9 coyotes 1 cat 1 badger 1 coon . Not done checking and and still putting In sets. Has a student with him today.
He said weather wise he's right In the middle of what's coming.
He didn't take any pictures yesterday so there won't be a picture on the Blog for Sunday.

Bruce T I think he should write a book on his attempt anyway. Or better yet try again next year then write the book when he does it.

He called late and said he had 13 head. The wife took the call so I didn't get all the details.
Robert told me he will attempt the 1000 coyotes quest next trapping season. Don't know about a book but flick might be a better Idea.

A real movie. The kind shown in theaters. Put trappers in a positive light. Feat he has already done is hard to imagine. Movie needs some footage of coyotes eating a calf not even born all the way or the goofy way sheep get and how easy they get sick and die after coyotes kill some. Show some footage of kids in an ER resulting from coyotes losing their fear of humans. Then the hard work and skill of a exceptional trapper. So it can be appreciated.

Appreciated by the 1/2 dozen Tman members in the audience for each showing. Unfortunately those who would benefit from seeing it will be home watching Disney shows.

Do you think him catching so many this year will hurt the numbers next year?Mostly if you hit them hard the numbers will go down the next year.I would think he would be better off to skip a year and try the next year.Of coarse him only trapping an area for a couple weeks might not hurt them like trapping an area all season and picking off the ones that keep moving into the area.Will be interesting to see what happens if he tries it next year.Allso he might have more competition after showing how many coyotes are in that area.

It's not a secret and has been reported before in this thread. Either gets it from BobWendt or one legged Johnny.

Coyote or fox urine? Better worded question... anybody know where you can buy high quality urine? Either direct from Roberts supplier or a different supplier equal in quality?

As to the question about competition. Robert has written permission on the land he Is trapping I don't see him losing any of It to other trappers. If you have good coyote habitat other coyotes will fill In the void . When he left ND he only had 24 head and he normally catches around 240. Then he moved to Nebraska and ran Into WS so he never even trapped that area. Then he had to go home for Xmas which cost him some coyotes but I'm sure the Little women was glad to see him. LOL
I have no doubt that next year he will get It done.
