Is that because you are trapping pressured coyotes or do you think flat sets out perform other sets on all coyotes?

It’s about time you can’t use bait anyways, ants are starting to roam.
Great pics! And can’t wait to hear about the drags. I have a dozen made up, just nervous about using them. I’m finally on a property I can give them a shot.
Good luck in Texas and thanks for all your help. Thanks Wannabe. You are right on them ants !!! First time I have ever noticed = massive amounts of ants this early. Plus. Made be a bad year = in south for = misquote and bull nats

Sorry been out running snares Keystone Killer. The main reason I am running drags is = THE OWNERS!!! They did not want to see any coyotes =. Flopping Around off main roads. So we will use drags. Plus in the long run on 100s of thousands of acres = Drags in the end and in the long term over hopefully 20 more yearsvof trapping 365 will save lots of money for me. I look at = MJ 600 Sterlings and 1 piece drags as = investment. I dont look at = High cost to by like some trappers do. I look at down the road. Plus. In West Texas. I will have a Blue Lacey to follow up animals quickly I would have never guessed that to be the reason for using drags. But if they keep writing good checks, do what makes them happy

Man, I look at that and think what nice ground it is to work with. Haha. Nice and dry, unfrozen, no bedrock or big rocks to deal with, no big roots. Not frozen or going to receive 2” of snow/hr. Chopping and shoveling are overrated. I greatly enjoy your photos, Steeltraps.
