So, there I was, out checking the 2 traps I had set up in between the Lilac bushes for the Coyotes that I heard and saw the other night. Oh, I saw tracks up and down the Driveway, and AROUND THE SETS. One of them, was even nice enough to leave a little "PRESENT" next to one of the traps!!: crazy: I got this sense that I was being watched!! I looked towards the vacant lot next door, and laying underneath a Blue Spruce Tree, LOOKING RIGHT AT ME; was that dang Coyote. Less than 50 feet away, watching my every move! I swear I was being laughed at

Got to come up with a plan B. This is embarrassing!!

LOL!! Cary your rifle with ya'!!

Can you call and shoot the coyotes where you are?

Keith

Too close to neighbor's house

Have to be 500 feet away from a House.

Shoot from back inside your house
Sniper style

No pic of the “present “?

That rascal needs killin! 500 feet or not.

I've been there. It can get personal real fast. And yes they are laughing at you not with you.

get them.....call game dept and tell them situation and see if they wont give u permission.

Man up and trap those devils or turn in your trapper card

What's that neighbors feeling on the coyotes?: Are there any other neighbors close by that would give a crap if you popped the coyotes?

Beep Beep

Well, let's see....

Neighbor on the other side of the Vacant lot, has a 16- or 17-year-old Black Lab. That Dog is treated better than most people get treated!!

The neighbor on the other side of my property, well, she is one of those Animal Rights activists. Her HUSBAND, on the other hand, has no problem seeing those Coyotes gone.

That's what I say

You got this, canvasback.

PCP air rifle will do the trick
At that distance you can ear hole that sucker and he will never move
Gather him up and haul him off after dark and nobody will be the wiser

My Mathews is really quiet…

compound or crossbow i say also...

This project is calling for live bait.
You can continue to be a sportsman, like a bass fisherman casting the same crankbait at an 8 pounder guarding a bed until your arm falls off.
Me, I'll throw a live crawdad on that bed. One cast and done.
A live chicken in a pen and a crossbow seems like the ticket to me.

2x love our pcp and they handel yotes fine.

I thought the neighbor with his 17 year old lab had said lab ate by coyotes last week???

I'm confused^^^

LOL!

I thought that also,did I read it wrong?

Glad to see you are trying canvasback!

The coyote didn't know you were setting traps...
He smelled them.

If your neighbors are cool, there is no 500' rule

The road I live on is filled with Labrador Retrievers!
Apparently, a very popular dog breed in Town. The Labrador Retriever breeder that I got my Lab from, Lives just up the road from me. Neighbor and I had a talk about it. He said to trap them out. Just going to keep his Dog tied up to his Dog House, till the Coyote situation is dealt with

That'll learn ya, always carry a gun!

X2.

I keep coming back to how you were gonna deal with a coyote when you catch it? Hope have the DNR or someone on speed dial. Remember can't discuss dispatch folks.

He's going to show it a picture of Pelosi and hope it doesn't do so much damage he can't save the pelt

That would kill it sure shooting
