You made a good choice and investment their! It will pay for its self many times over! I sure like mine ARM made in Japan, good quality swagger. Have a Merry Christmas!!!!! That's the same one I have, the ARM one. I have mine mounted on a board so it's portable though.

Very interesting color on that Lure. I wonder what kind of base he used? I know it probably taste's like Chicken! Let us know how it works for You. Mark . The orginal Nightrain that Mr Lucero first gave to me and just afew other people to test caught over 100 coyotes for me. Although some did not like it cause = it was said to be + to thin. I personally like thin . It will be cold tomorrow AND when i start in West Texas it will probablly be to thick !! LOL!

All those Texas coyotes are gonna freeze to death next weekend ST lol Sneaky. I check the weather. And HOPEFULLY when I get there round the 28 th it will be = as they are predicting on AccuWeather. Starting 29 th will be like High of 60 and 30s low. BUT it gets colder every day toward new years. I will be on some grounds that have been trap aready. But hope for = 30 days = 100 plus coyotes? Last year daily average was 5.5 coyotes aday. So Im figuring - 3 to 4 coyotes a day puts me at or over 100 plus

Get 'em steeltraps! No quarter given. And you'll need more fossil fuels to keep yourself comfy. We're gonna be in the Valley soon where temps are more to our liking. This last job in the Panhandle was chillllllly on a buggie. But the 41# bobcat was the prize catch of the 14 days (they thought they had a smaller lion) and so we're in like Flynn with another ranch.
I've never used James' lures but know many who do well with them.
Blessings, Mark Mark. I try my best. To stay off the buggies. In Feb in Alabama I have a 14 day job on 6000 acres I work that I have to use buggy. But man. Its cold on my ears! LoL ! I prefer to work from Toyota Tacoma = when I can. But when its rainy a buggy is nice to have.
