And the jink is broken!!!!!!!! (Update)
« on: Oct 22, 2013, 06:24:30 AM »
After at least 5 years of trying I am pleased to report that while running my short line this AM (6 K-9 sets) I was thrilled to find an adult female coyote patiently waiting for my arrival held firmly by a solid pad catch. I have had some drive by's and near misses, caught fox, coon, skunk, possum and even a red squirrel in my coyote sets but this is my first coyote and I'm tickled to death.   Luck to all......


Just checking in w/an update.  11/ 14

Coyote 1
Grey Fox 2
Coon 1
Mink 2
Rats 7
Beaver 1
Skunk 1
possum 2
porcupine 1
turkey 1

Yes. Dirthole set next to an island of trees in the middle of small 4 acre vegtable garden. Shot of lure applied to a piece of sheep wool in the hole. Caught second night

Nice Job!!  were you able to do a reset or did she pretty well tear it up? Keep at it b/c theres more, they just get a bit smarter and will make you work at it.

Not much of a catch circle, don't think she was in it long. I will remake it but no time this AM. Had to get to work. Rain in the forcast for tonight so it will be a day or two. Have another set in the same area.
