I caught 5 on my 2 trap line at my place and saw more on a camera. I had pulled my super stakes and almost needed a backhoe to get them out in this rediculas hard ground with the drought. I had to drill them out because I broke both of the pull cables.

So I decided when I reset them to use drags on them with 10 feet of chain. I tie a couple feet on caution tape on the drag so I can find them. Just throw a little grass over them.

The trap and set that had caught 4 has now caught 5 for a total of 6 on my small line. She didn't move the drag more than 2 feet before it stuck for good. Made for an easy remake, just pop the trap back in. The bait and lure in the hole was untouched.

That's great work. Don't need a lot of steel to have fun.

Hopefully the other one that was on camera will step on the same trap tonight. Lots of fun and all have been healthy so far. I hate catching mangy coyotes.
