This is the first year in 6 years that I’ll actually be able to hit the predators hard this winter. I can’t wait

I’m a big fan of footholds for many reasons and they do the job
Congratulations to you and your son!

What are your reasons for not liking footholds? Just curious.

Honestly, it’s just me personally, I don’t have any problem with people using them but I feel bad when I do it. I like a quick kill.

It is getting close to time to set some traps.

Lures and urine have been ordered and received. We start about end of Oct for coyotes then late Nov for bobcats.
Some catches from past 2 years.

What kind of lures/bait do you like to use? I primarily use Andy Weisers stuff but also use Western Cats and Muddy River fur. Luckily I have a buddy with a coyote and he collects urine so i use coyote urine about 100% of the time as well.

We're going with some John Graham lures and coyote urine and some Lennon lures and bait.
Tomcat, Badlands Bob and Deception from Graham; Natures Call and Coyote All Call from Lennon, bobcat urine coming too.
John recommended we might want to try his Grab and Pull and maybe Super Bonanza. I might order some after our moose hunt.

I was going to ask the same, I suddenly want one on the wall. Those things are awesome! If a small bear got pregnant with a racoon.........

Great pictures!

Older thread but a small game/trapping sub form was just created!

I enjoy coyote trapping about as much as I do trying to get them to come a electronic caller. I really like making the sets that fool the really smart ones.

I wish I had more time to devote to trapping, I really enjoy it.

Been a while since I got to trap much. Sure want to get back at it. I feel like trapping played a big role in who I am. Nothing better for getting kids in the outdoors.

What size stake are you all using on the coyote sets? I've only trapped coons and a 24" rebar stake seems to hold them. Would think a coyote would take more.

Great pictures and love to see the kids out with mom and dad trapping. I haven't trapped since High School and I miss doing it. I do love to call coyotes though and I'd love to get a wolf that way. Heading out in a couple days to see if I can call one in.

Just depends on the ground. I use rebar or chained superstakes or cabled wolf fangs or drags or augered stakes I run in the ground with a ½" cordless impact. It just depends on the ground conditions I'm trapping in.
