I am going to say about 40% mangy coyotes and another 10 % that low grade or thin So 77 coyotes maybe 30 good ones? So 30 x 15 dollars. That wouldn't hardly pay the 315 for a non resident fur bearing license. SO I do nuisance work and they go in the ditch

Good to hear. Trying Formula 1 this year for the first time. In fact, I think I talked to you about it. Glad to see you having success!

Managed to get some traps in the dirt on my place today

Used some Lucero lure on 3 of them, JL#1, Coyotero and Winter Wolf

Has been a few weeks since I had traps out so curious to see how quick I can catch some coyotes

Been really busy. Things are winding down. Day 18 and I have caught 90 coyotes. Was hoping for 100 in 20 days. But I have to pick up line tomorrow and go home. Have lots to get done. Will return around Jan 5th or so for a 30 day job on a few properties that want coyotes gone

You may have posted this info and I just missed it but

1) How many traps were you running?
2) How much ground did you cover?
3) Did you ever recover all of your traps on drags?

Have a safe trip home

BTW I think 5 a day average is good
