Chad's 2017 Yote Trapping

[Bigslam51]

Hey Chad - I don't know what u use for your dirt holes, but you may want to give this stuff a shot. I was at a local trapping convention and one of the best known local coyote guys did a demo and swears by it. Says it is all he uses. I can't speak from personal experience as I never got around to trying it after buying it.

Whatever I'm using doesn't work. I'll look into it, preciate it.

Caught a very nice male red today. The first time I set foot on the property this year I noticed an abundance of fox sign, told myself if I caught one I'd keep it to get tanned. I turned that bat on my lathe out of Osage that groundhog Cole gave me from his grandpa's farm, worked like a charm

Thanks fellas! He's on the stretcher now. My buddy Eric was kind enough to put him up for me since I don't have any fox stretchers.

Decided to do a late night snare check with my buddy Josh and use my new yote hunting light. Well, we spotted eyes from 300 yards where I knew I had a snare. We drove down the field edge, I got out to walk around the corner of the thick edge and found a big catch circle with a yote in it.

Smaller female, fur wasn't that nice but a dead yote none the less. Boy was that fun
