Hey guys.
I was referred here by a gentleman at NC hunting forum since I do some trapping. Really got into it a lot this year and already have 3 beavers and a fox. My 13 year old son and I have been trying hard to trap a coyote but they are some smart buggers!!
Anyway we live the northwest part of Forsyth county NC Pfafftown.
I’m 45 married with 4 kids and we do all things outdoors all together as a family and we love it!
Looking forward to learning a lot here!

Welcome to the trapping information over load place. Land trapping archives has enough on trapping coyotes you can read until your eyes bleed. The first is the hardest. Once it clicks you will wonder why it took so long LOL Then when you think you got it figured out they will toss the change up and a slice of humble pie is the menu.

I made a buddy while I was working over there- the claim he had on his house had been mishandled by the first adjuster there. Long story short- he had sent me pics of his 8 and 10 year old boys harvesting nice (ish) bucks and treeing both coon and bobcats so I knew he and I would click.
Anyway- he told me his wife could clean fish, venison, or wild pork and had even helped the boys skin out some fur and flesh it. Before I even met them I assumed she would be a good ol girl with about half her teeth and ugly as a mud hen. When I got there, she was a solid 9 and lady like.
Them NC girls will surprise you.

Good thing you translated your "busting" comment for Boco jctunnelrat or he might still be scratching his head.
