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!!

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

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.

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

I thought that also,did I read it wrong?[/quote] 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

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.
