Thanks TDog. This kid makes it look easy when he releases this coyote from the trap and puts him in a crate! I plan to just make the same one he shows how to make. The clothes line tightener is a great idea! Cheap at Lowes. https://youtu.be/8WJvDIe4t8QI started with a homemade release pole that used the close lines tensioner but bought a HD model from Southern Snares. Worth the upgrade IMO.
"Cull" is just another four letter word...

A T-bone set with Elk River Lures' Tonnage and BTO spoke to this 25 lb female coyote. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/05ajuH4.jpg)

Thanks for the info!!
I decided to hold off and plan to set traps on Wednesday. Should be able to keep out 3-4 days. I was planning on using the polyfill. I have some aluminum screen I will experiment with. My only concern was having it raise up too much over the pan? Is that an issue you have. Do you cut a notch where the dog is?
Not likely to happen where I am planning on trapping but...if I were to trap someone's dog, how do you release safely without getting bitten or hurting the dog? I use nylon screen so I don't have to deal with the aluminum screen bending up. Yes, cut a notch in the screen where it rests atop the dog.

Last 4 day in that trap - caught cat - had cat step by pan - animal got out of trap - look like big struggle and caught coyote this morning. My other 3 dog traps - nothing. Hav caught 3 coon in last 4 days. Will post Cyote and cat pics in next 3-5 days.

Probably a dumb question but here goes...I know you can gather coyote scat and place by a set to attract coyotes....but if that is not available, would regular dog scat work as well?? I have access to lots of that

Any scat is an attractant, K9 is probably the most effective because the coyote will want to pee on it and leave his scent. This 24 lb male was taken on Redstone with a dirt hole set. I had my Christmas ham bone in the dirt hole with Elk River Lures' Anomaly on the backing. On Tuesday morning the ham bone was gone and the trap was still set. So, I rebaited the dirt hole with Caven's Predator Bait from Cabela's on sheep's wool and Wednesday morning this yote was in the trap. It was my 1st catch in the 3 weeks I've been trapping on the Arsenal. I had 2 sets dug up my 1st week out there. Tight Chains! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/4Ug1GQp.jpg)

I'm not sure if it's the springs on my K9 Xtreme's or the FMJ wax speed dip or what, but my traps get tripped just about every rain. This 24 lb female found a pipe dream set loaded with Caven's Predator Bait and Elk River Lures' BTO and Euphoriam. She jumped in with both right feet! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/kwBbC1g.jpg)

Trapped my first coyote today! MB550 offset 2 coil, dirt hole set, used sheep's wool and RK Predator Plus Bait in hole with Red Fox Urine and Hawbaker Wildcat #1 Caught on the forth night. Also got 2 racoons, one in a MB550 and another in my Duke DP Trap ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/W4zYXcQ4/Coyote-Jan-10-2021-near-low-shooting-house.jpg)

I had one of my traps with a deer print literally 2 inches from the trap. Guess they can just pull out on their own?

I wondered if that ever freakishly/accidentally happened - I noticed for first time today I had deer tracks close to one of my sets - few feet
