3 more coons today

2 coons this morning
Starting to slow down quite a bit so I may pull traps next week
I’ve got a couple more dogs targeted so we’ll see

I use Lip Licker (bait) and Crows Blood (lure) from Down South Trappers year round and also Coyote Claymore 1 (bait from Clint Locklear) and Yodel Dog (lure, from Caven's).

But I'm using leghold traps.

Caught my first coon over the weekend. Running DPs with a mix of peanuts and cat food. Had him by both hands

Pulled my traps, so I didn't have to run them every morning. I'll give it a few weeks and then make a late summer run before football starts full time. ended with 45 coons, 16 possums, 11 tree rats, 9 chipmucks and 4 rats.

This pup was caught on a new property, 3rd day of trapping. Kitten breath was lured into a pipe dream set, using "Red" fox gland and fox urine. 8/6/20

Caught with fawn breath, this 28 lb male came in to a double dirt hole set with “Red” fox gland and “Anomaly” down the hole wearing a K9 Xtreme and an Expand-a-pan on 7/9/20

15 lb coyote in a dirt hole set, wearing a Duke 550. Euphoriam from Elk River Lures drew him in on 4/14/20

27 lb male coyote stepped into a Duke 550 on a dirt hole set, Elk River Lures’ Euphoriam on the backing on 4/6/20

Hind foot catch in a K.O. K9 Xtreme on a dirt hole set, Elk River Bait and Lures on 3/16/20



This male was caught with a front foot in a K9 Xtreme and a back foot in an MB-550 on a well-worn dirt hole set. My cousin, Adam Carle is looking down on today’s catch, having passed 3 years ago today in a fatal motorcycle accident. 3/4/20



Groundhog Day girl in a MB-550, Elk River Lures in the dirt hole and on the backing on 2/2/20




This one wound up in the wrong place after a wild night out on New Year’s Eve 1/1/20



The 3-legged yote got this set hot. Too bad it’s a mud hole with all the rain we’ve had. He got to join his hop-a-long buddy for Christmas. Elk River Lures produces, again. 12/23/19



Took this 3-legged yote out of the population with Elk River Lures and a Duke #2 in a dirt hole set on 12/21/19 - My 1st catch as a trapper

Good job Pollwoll.

Thanks for your support! I ran a half dozen sets on a quarter mile hedgerow that's on the western edge of Madison City limits. My new property is another 50 acre parcel across the street from it. I run 13 K.O. K9 Xtreme and a dozen dog proof coon traps. It doesn't take much time to check a small line. I hope more guys stand up like I did when I found out there were coyotes invading garages with toddlers in them in my subdivision.

Awesome pictures - I am just about to start getting into coyote trapping - I hav only trapped coon In past - looking forward to it

Just now, while checking the short lines on 2 x 50 acre parcels, I came across 3 fawns. They were browsing for the coon attractant that I threw around to get some raccoons into my dog proof coon traps. It is catfish pellets sprayed with Coon Collector/Anise.

It's great seeing the results of your work when you get a moment to reflect on what you've done. When you are in nature, you can find coyotes or fawns. If you see coyote, you likely won't see any fawns. And, that is natural selection at work before you. Since I removed nearly a dozen coyote in the past 9 months, these fawns had the chance to enjoy a little coon bait. I went ahead and poured 5 lbs of sweet feed on top of my DP's in case they come back to the same spot. It might make a good Burger King for the coons, if not.

Are ants fond of the catfish bait? Coons are showing up on my place like crazy. take 2 off, four more show up... Now I can't keep the ants out of the traps.
We've caught 27 coons and 5 possums this year since Mid April, can't tell it at the feeders...aggravating.
