I like using a No BS Jr. and Dale Billingsley's Wolfers Choice or his Predator Buster.

MB550 and junes fox frenzy

You learned how to hold stuff from uncle Jbyrd didn’t you.

When I set for yotes I use mb650 cast offset with gusto.

… I run bridger 2 dogless and if I had to pick one lure for coyote it’d be Miranda’s high plains predator call


…. GH11 right behind it though

I like it when the topic on here actually comes around to trapping. MB550 offset. Luceros, Derricks, O Gormans, Dobbins, Carmens, Jameson's lures. (Don't you talk about me having to pick one lure now!) Which I choose depends on when and where.

… I know you got a favorite Dan

Montana #3, hiwatha valley, violator 7

If you try to pin me down on lures I'll tell you that I catch the most on Zoom trick worms and Gary Yamamoto doubletail grubs. But I gotta have rods rigged with a Pop R, a Pointer 78, a buzzbait, and ------. Because you just get that feeling sometimes you need to throw "this" at em.

… theirs one you reach for first when setting up new ground…. Spill the beans Dan … or else I’ll ride towards you … drink up all your beer and slap your goats around

Savell you are always more than welcome to all my beer and all my goats. Come on up and get em anytime LOL. And while your hear we'll go catch something - after you're sworn to secrecy.

…. I used to send pdc oil drilling bits up to vernal Utah

The oil and gas patch employs lots of people here. So many wells and roads in some places you better not get caught in a fog without gps or you'll be driving in circles for hours. Been there LOL.

308 viewing .. ain’t many saying a word

…. Must be waiting for Jurassic park to post a selfie with maple syrup dripping off his chin

Speaking of coyotes, I used to catch quite a few of them in Duke 1.5's, actually set them for coyotes, or whatever else came by first. Then I found Trapperman and quickly learned it can not be done, so I quit doing that nonsense. I used whatever lure Ludy Sheda threw in on whatever I was buying, lol. Of course that's only been 35-36 years ago now...

… caught a few myself in 1.5 when that was all I had … had one go full on Jesus on me while rinsing him off in the creek….ressurected and Bit me on the inner thigh

…. I can’t blame that on the little trap … but it was western nonetheless

… believe the lure was sardine and dispatch was a stick lol

My biggest coyote to date was in a Victor 1.5 coil. It was in a dirt hole for coon with a homemade bacon bait. I was honeymooning with my new bride. We drove around the corner and she says "I thought you said that you can't hold a coyote in a 1.5". I didn't even get out of the pickup before I dispatched it, but when I got up to it it was held well, behind the pad. Judging by the catch circle he'd been there quite a while too.

Only trap that I've had a coyote disassemble was a stock duke 1.5. But in the traps defense it was held good until those greaser lawn guys showed up and spooked it.

… I’ve had several bust up a #2

I caught a wolf in an old worn out Blake and Lamb 1 1/2 coil, had that big paw dead center. But this was in a water set with a 25’ slide cable. I caught my first two coyotes in 450 helfrich eliminators.

Ludy Sheda ... there is a name I have not heard in awhile, what a character. I once left a state trapping convention with a pickup load of stuff I didnt really need, but I got it for little of nothing! LOL You just needed to find that one item at the convention he was looking to get rid of. Once you bought that item you had the Golden Ticket. Everything else was dirt cheap in our experience.

Mostly #2 and #3 coils, all modified unless they were built that way with a base plate and laminated jaws. Montgomery, Northwoods, Bridgers and lately a few MN Trapline traps. Deception and Cat Creek by Fur Country Lures
