I finally caught my first ever coyote. It was a huge surprise to me today as I wasn't expecting it. I have been trying for the last 5 years but have been really trying for the last 2 years. I finally caught it on a dirt hole set with a Duke 550 guarding it. All I had for bait and lure was Dakota Line Predator bait by John Almquist, sheep's wool, and red fox urine. It was a very beautiful male coyote, it only weighed 28 pounds. I'm freezing it whole so I can have my fur buyer skin out the paws and everything to be taxidermy tanned. I'm hoping I can catch a few more this year but it has made my year entirely by finally catching one. Here's a couple of pictures. It was a very mixed bag of trapping as I also caught 3 rats, a good sized beaver, and a coon in a #1 Victor Stoploss.

congratulations that will be the first of many. I rember walking into New of the set with my first coyote in it not expecting anything yet again and there it was. It took a minute to register then back to the truck for the catch pole.

Hope you have another in your remake on your next check.

Congratulations! Your first one is always special. Many more in your future.

Way to go man, he is a beauty!

Good work,
I was 8 years trapping before I cought my first 1st coyote.
We had almost 0 coyotes where I grew up in north central IA.
My first one was in a pocket set on the Raccoon River in central IA .
And my second was in a 220 set in the mouth of a culvert lol.
