.... going to make one last little line before getting out the fishing and frog gigging equipment...

A new place by the house... appears to be full of coyotes that have never seen a set.... only problem is there seems to be nothing but coyote in here but it sure looks catty ...









... not all sand down here ... unfortunately lol



... probably only run 15 or so sets after work this week and pull next Sunday....

Hope you get a bunch

Love that sandy soil...gotta ask why use peat if you have sand in warmer non freezing conditions?

Good luck.Go get them.

Good Luck Brother!

Good luck! Weather should be good this week...No rain in our forecast!!!
We have soil similar. Got a couple spots that are a breeze to set in, most are that beautiful red clay, lol! Not too bad for setting, but pulling takes a strong drill!!

Rain.... I don’t like reworking sets that didn’t have an animal in them

Frog giggin,,we cant do that till June here.I'm jealous cause I LOVE frog legs.I get them during the day floating through the swamp in a canoe with my .22.Then,I gig them after dark along the shore line with a head lamp on.

Not much better then frog legs.

... hard to beat frog legs NY

... everywhere I stop on this place .... either I’m real good at picking locations from the windshield.... or this place is absolutely infested

So many tracks there you can just drive by and throw traps out the truck window.

Wow, that would be fun trapping that sand all the time with all the coyote sign, The cats would be really cool since we don't have a lot around here and no season. Good luck and have fun. Will your boys be helping?

You have more tracks in one pic than I’ve seen all year, lol!!

... any tips on how to get the first one out ? Lol ... I’ve never figured out a good way to do it

Middle one first.

Spear the middle one with your Barlow lol

... I think I’m still on the right property lol

Don’t let your hound out if your not sure lol

... now into iron ore ground... but sign says I need to chisel a set in anyway

One of the reasons I have the Hunt Stand app. I know it’s not guaranteed accurate, but accurate enough to stay between the lines.

Are you on some nature preserve or y’all just have that many coyotes around. I could take every property I trap and not come up with that much sign.

... I’m still in the right place... just trying to get SwampWolf stirred up lol

... this particular place is ate up with them looks like.... not the norm, but I’ve seen it before... I guess they’re able to maintain that high population by eating hogs... fawns would have a bad spring in here I imagine... if there’s any deer left... haven’t seen much sign of them

Nice looking area.

... have to b.y.o.d. to set that iron ore...

... that’s number 15.... I’m out of here .. don’t care to fool with much more than that after work this late in the year...

Should have 9 or 10 dancers tomorrow

Absolutely I've always expected a critter in every trap i set......and i've learned to handle disappointment really well

... get home and pull up to this scene lol.... no idea where those goofy looking glasses came from lol

...I’ll carry them along on a couple checks

.... put them to work turning over the garden after their porch lunch lol

Your a lucky man

Hardest part is getting started. I mutilate the first one out of the can, usually.

Shorts and bare feet, lol. 6 ft of snow still here.

... it was in the 30’s this morning if that’s any kind of consolation lol

Nice

Hug em while you can. They go from that stage to off doing their own thing in a blink.

... I know it.... and there’s plenty of bad things for them to get into... try to teach them best I can ... different world now than the the one I came up in .... hard to turn your own flesh and blood out into this mess lol

Lol they might surprise you

True that

Them hyena sausage's some of the best coyote bait there ever was, glad to see your graduating into upper echelon coyote trapping but if your too dumb to figure out how to get your bait out of the container i can't help ya.

That porch bunch looks sketchy, wished i lived close so i could teach them some neat tricks to play on dear ol dad for laughs, lol.

... fun’s over... time to remake my way out of this place... got 3 boar coon waiting for me as well lol

nice day catch

Nice

I can smell 'em from here with that southern sun on those bellies, lol. Must be a constant occupational hazard down there, bad enough here in constant sub zero temps.

Cats and otter worst to green belly down here plus it's so humid your dried hides will mold if you don't keep heat and fans going on them. Then of course this time of year the blow flies start laying eggs on EVERYTHING. Rough place to put up and KEEP hides in any kind of shape before you sell them, lol.

I imagine all them butt sniffers are going in the ditch though, lol.

I sure hope those came from the permission side of the property line....lol


Good catch on them heavy westerns!!!

Nice run Savell.

How come the new traps are still on the porch with the offspring

Thanks .. decent first check for a little sissy 15 trap after work line... we’ll see if they keep messing up with this warm spell setting in... I see a lot of coon skunk and possum in my future lol

... and I stay on the right side of the line Swamp lol

What a stack a beauties!

Great job Savell, you sure added to the pile! As for those Viennas.....only one way to do it, you have to compromize the stuctural integrity of that center sausage in order to extricate it's can-mates in a dignified manner. You are, afterall, a Southern Gentelman.

I never doubted you Wilbur!!!

LOL.

At the risk of being called a darn yankee and receiving the utmost unimaginable ridicule as could ever be faced on trapperman... I googled how to get the first vienna sausage out of the can for ya...

If you can't happen to fashion coon a pecker into a cocktail fork... heres an amazon link for ya.

https://www.amazon.com/Doryh-Stainl...tail+fork&qid=1615306334&sr=8-36

Some people must not have much to do........

Looks like your younger boy is wearing a necklace made with a animal part from one of your prize catches.

.. warmed up around here boys....might be slow for awhile... I understand if y’all would rather spend your time looking at one of Leftlanes weird posts instead lol

... only thing I had today

Nice catch

I’ve always just tipped the can upside down on the cleanest surface around (tailgate) and picked them off there. Vienna’s are easy. It’s the sardines that fall apart and your digging out little pieces in hot sauce or oil.

Righteous job wackin and stackin Savell. Looked like that spot needed some help.

OH this post is just now getting interesting since you got all the dumb one's out of the way, now we want to see your masterful never before seen on tv secret sets that catch the wileyest of the wiley one's, lol.

I think it was 82 here today, im back to carrying a side arm for protection, did see any 'mouths' today but i know they got to be thawing out by now.

Lol.... the only dumb one left that’ll be out there running the main road through that place now will be me in this hot spell lol

.. at least I got a couple good Vienna sausage tips ... thanks men

... and I don’t know what you’re talking about Jtrap... this is obviously a high IQ coyote right here ... he was reading the great gatsby when I pulled up

From looks of his tail he's been getting chewed out every night by the old lady, sucker probably just jumped in that trap to commit suicide.

I chewed on his tail... you should have known that!... you’re getting old and senile

Speaking of old and senile all this scat about getting that little sausage out Who cares Now if you'd think about how that little sausage gets in there without any marks on it now theres a conversation worth having
If that stuffer would bed a trap it probably would;nt even close when sprung

... I can’t think of a comment that’d be appropriate... but yes ... they’re packed in there tight lol

... I see Jtrap got put in bed already... I feel sorry for whichever nursing home staff member that’s tasked to deal with him

Awesome stuff, Mr. Savell.

... I can’t take credit for it .. these hands did research and pulled from years of experience on the Vienna sausage deal lol

Another nice catch.

Yep i had to turn in early, struggling in a swamp blowing stuff up all day wore me slap out.

Just buy some beenie weenie's if your having that much trouble with them pig peckers in a can.

I guess "Vienna sausage" is better marketing then "canned wieners."

Nice action there Savell, making it look pretty easy. Just curious if you're going to make some coin off of those suckers or just doing it to keep from getting into trouble with idle hands...? Even if the fur is poor, yote skulls sell when cleaned up...

SMH- no wonder Jtrap says all those unsavory things 'bout you and those 'gorgeous' coyotes over that way

No pictures today, guess he's out of dumb one's, have to watch some utube video's now to catch the rest.

... one more dumb one out sun tanning lol





.... and one smart one that thinks he’s got this game figured out for now lol

Looks like he was just covering the trap for you.

... naw... he didn’t like that nice imported dirt in his hard clay lol

That super duper lure was too much for him, caused him to do burn outs on your set. You need some muskrat lure for him, mild pleasant calming smell, lol

Lol.... mink gland lure is much better

I think Hormel puts red locktite in the Vienna Sausage cans when they pack them.

Remind me to tell you what you need next time we talk, don't want to get banned for advertising on here, lol.

Don't call tonight though, fixing to eat supper, watch a matlock re run and go soak in epsom salts since im so over the hill according to you.

Good deal. How many have been females?

... I make a little beer money off each dead coyote... some folks really like deer down here lol

... that question makes me wonder about you lol

... I don’t pay much attention to the coyote genitalia .....they’re all transgendered far as I’m concerned

... think three were males though on a serious note

Very good! What's the going rate, a case of Lone Star per yote or is it a 3:2 deal...?

... works out to about a case and a can of off brand snuff lol

Lone star and Longhorn mothers milk for a Texan.

Nice job!

... that hits close to home right there lol

Did ya catch any extra smart ones today hand? You should rub Jtaps nose in it if ya did

I got a tick off of me today so that's a bad sign.

... oh wait a minute... that was from when I had a white truck... it was cold and wasn’t spending 11 hours of the day working

... not a dang thing other than a ratty little coon today lol

Ive never met nor spoke to Mr Savell. Sure seems like ya"ll pick on him alot. Mite wanna leave a fella Texan alone.

... you ain’t been around here long... it’s just good clean fun most of the time... I earn plenty of it lol

... and if I felt picked on ... I’d manually castrate each and everyone of these yanks assuming they had anything worth removing..

OHHHHHHEEEEELLLYEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

.. I had to dig a dadgum seed tick out of my chest with my case knife yesterday... he had bored all the way down into the cartilage lol

What these were, just found two more buried up when i took a shower!

Saw that picture and thought you were pulling the old bob trick, stack them in a freezer and lay them out each day with the new one's so it looks like your killing 40 or 50 a day, lol.

... that ain’t a bad idea lol

Keep it in mind if you ever go into the trapping movie and lure business, lol

... got another dumb one on this cool 83 degree day ... he looks almost as dumb as Jtrap lol



...and a prime 3x coon lol

Buzzards will be circling the Savell back 40

[quote=Savell]... got another dumb one on this cool 83 degree day ... he looks almost as dumb as Jtrap lol




Thats not a nice thing to say.



About a coyote.

Lol

... one more this morning

That last one made a good floor mat for a1973 jeep renegade!

That other one you better quit taking pictures on them only held by one toe!

You ever get caught up i need some coon trapping instructions, anyone can catch them stray dogs.

... yeah... a beautiful majestic creature lol

You might catch more iffin you drink those energy drinks while trapping instead of them beers. At least you aint littering...lol

He use's that beer for a possum repellant at his sets, about all it's good for.

... this is a little piddly after work leisure line Swamp... if I drug up from the job and drank one of those energy drinks mixed with whiskey... I’d kill every coyote in this county in 3 days lol

... I don’t have one of those game law jobs where I can run traps most of the day then write a kid a ticket for fishing without a life jacket on the way home just to show I did something ....


....OHHHEEEEELLLYEAHHH!!!!!!


... I’m sorry the devil made me say that lol

Way to go Savell...keeping the predators controlled. Jackie taught you well....lol

Oh now we got a school teacher up in here trying to cause trouble, i swear Savell you attract more trouble than a cow pie attracts flies.

... well if it makes you feel any better Jtrap I’ve got a hundred inches of rain coming tomorrow lol

J one better than that....a soon to be retired schoolteacher. Lol Savell can I be your hired skinner?

Well you should be able to catch enough clean water to make some decent shine.

... ride on down... I got 9 bloated and eyeless ones waitin for you lol

Careful Savell, he's an edukated man, be pulling them big words out on you like Matt Dillion pulling that pistol!

Glad we're getting rain, i don't have to watch the weather to know what it's going to do, be on a four wheeler all next week so figured it would be the start of the monsoon season.
