So the landowner I’m trapping for sends me a pic a couple of days ago of a coyote crossing his driveway, like almost in his front yard. He sends another this morning. I jokingly say I can set a trap there and put “lol” behind it. He then texts back and says put two there.
So I stop by on my afternoon check and he comes out and shows me the camera and we figure out where he’s crossing and I put a flat set in with a couple small rat holes with my driver and a blind set on the trail. Told him to feel free to dispatch if I make a catch and he sees it before I get there.
If I catch him, it will definitely be a first catching one in someone’s front yard. [Linked Image]

Caught a coyote this morning in a set that I’ve already caught 2 possums in. I was actually gonna pull it this weekend and move it. I haven’t done anything to it in almost 2 weeks other than drive by in the truck. It was actually disappointing. It was right on a curve with an overgrown unused 2 track going straight down into the bottom making it almost a Y. I had high hopes for it, and then the possums. This morning made it all good again, lol.

I made sure he understood that if a catch is made that there’d be a catch circle...like some serious tore up ground. He said, my yard man will fix it, just catch it.
