Finally got my 2nd coyote ever and first one this year. Been trapping since November 15 and this is the first. No pics but it was a female pup with a light case of mange. I didn't skin it because of its size and mange but still an accomplishment. No, it wasn't at the set that I previously posted on here. Fat set with unknown lure and a little urine.

Outstanding, congrats

Good job! Keep up the good work!

Sure is fun when you catch one ain't it.

You will only get better at it as time goes on.

Thanks guys! Tom, yes it is. I was really excited when I pulled as was my dog.

Congrats

Persistence pays

I'm still learning but the more I learn the more confidence I have and that is an important part of the equation

Great job.

Congrats. Build up your confidence on those yotes. Learn to trap them consistently and you can catch any any land critter you have around. The coyotes will teach you good habits. Lol

Good Job.its a bit disappointing when you get an animal that isnt worth skinning,but dont worry about that you will get plenty of good ones as you keep trapping(and a few crappy ones too)
Managing them is important regardless

Keep it up.. some years are a struggle and others you don't have time to clean them all.. keep in mind that there is a cycle to the population about every 7-10 years.. I know in my area coyote are down and ground bird and small game is up... here in a few years it will flip..trapping them constantly on the down years will only make it easier when the population goes up... keep it up and the numbers will come. Keep a log and it will also help to make it easier to constantly trap them.

Congratulations, way to stick it out. I bet it got your adrenaline flowing to see that yodel dog in your trap after being so persistent

Your first coyote may well have been just blind luck.
With your second catch, you are now a sage hand. The coyotes will soon be waiting in line to have the chance to get caught by you.
Welcome to the club Trapper!

Nice work Pofarmer10! You know how things work now...keep at it and experiment every season to learn other possibilities.

Great job! Small, Medium, or Large a coyote is a coyote. Too bad about the mange, around here mange runs about 30 percent of my catch.

Way to stick with it. They will teach you a thing or 2 each season. Mange is unfortunately part of coyote trapping.
