Great pic.
Cold weather and snow probably got those coyotes moving.

Well that's at least 3 today.

Update:

He thinks he has 13 In the back of the truck but there might be 14. LOL
Rained all night and was still raining when they went out this morning and then It started snowing and there Is about 8" on the ground. And under that Is around 5" of mud.
In that pic of the triple there was actually 4 coyotes. One was dead and covered with snow. Mange and the bad weather killed It.

Can't make any new sets or remakes with the weather like It Is. Has about 6 days left.
And he just about lost one coyote when he was heading back to the truck one coyote recovered and was standing up In the back of the truck. LOL

I can't imagine what It must be like to have to deal with those conditions. Anyone else would have pulled stakes and went home days ago.

Robert reminds me of the "Energizer Bunny". He moves at the same speed before daylight till after dark and just keeps going & going & going...……………….

He said that there were 14 coyotes. Nine were skinable one was broke 4 were mangy. He's hoping to stay until he makes 900.

Weather conditions are tough he has 3 In the truck 38 to go to hit 900. Robert said he will make 900 and I'm a believer.

30 would have motivated me. HA! 862 is just way beyond that. Thanks for the continued updates Beav. It's been a great journey to follow along. Go Robert!!


57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

It's fun following this thread, I'm such an amateur that catching one gets me excited. This is incredibly amazing. Can someone post a pic of what "broke" looks like? I've heard the phrase but not seen it.

No 24 hour check law for coyotes in Ne. Coyotes are not considered a fur bearer in Ne. The 24 hour check law although a "grey area" only applies to fur bearers. As long as a trapper states that all his traps are coyote specific there is no law being broken. That being said I always want to check mine once every 24 anyway.
24 hour check or not, go Robert! Incredible!!!

I think if he doesn`t do it this year he will start in Kansas next year if he`s going to try again.He may usually catch around 240 in ND but how long does it take to catch them and how many more in that amount of time would he catch in Kansas?It will be interesting to see what all he does different.
