Did t catch crap today - been slow
John I am usually trapping for coyotes in roads or fields. Do u trap in woods much? I got a yearly scrap area in pretty woods the dogs hit a lot after first of year - thinking that would be good spot to trap
If u trap in woods - do you just cover your pan w leaves ?

If u trap in woods - do you just cover your pan w leaves ? Yea. Try a piss post set around that scrape maybe. I usually take scissors and blend everything in best I can cutting up leaves and what not. I pulled everything yesterday just to take a break a week or two. When I start back I'm gonna mainly use blind sets on trails. I honestly believe with this hot weather I'll do better putting out alot of blind sets versus doing dirt holes with baits and lures. I'll still use a couple piss post sets also. On my blind sets I use a stepping stick to help guide their foot. I really like to set up on a part going up hill. Ill cut out a step in the trail to set my trap in. Going up hill like that ill always put my stepping stick above the trap hoping they'll go for the flat spot on the other side. They'll usually use the step going up the hill if that makes sense

Thanks John It can be a clump of grass, a old log sticking out next to a trail. Anywhere you see coyote sign like tracks or scat where trails intersect is a good spot for a piss post. Just set a trap with a clump of grass, log, rock whatever to put urine on next to sign basically. A dog will help you find and mark those spots also

What are you using in your dps right now? I worked some last week and ants ruined my baits. Set 7 today with just corn and a squirt of fish oil about a foot away just to give them some scent to follow. Don't know if it will work or not but its a long weekend so I figured I needed to at least try.
What you do today, you have to sleep with tonight.
