That is the first this year, 2 years ago, I caught 4 in cage traps. Set on sign, bait them and leave em alone and stay away from them except to relure about every 5 days or more often if it is real cold. I relured that one on Monday with vasoline and skunk essence

Yes white, that is a homemade cage trap. I made three of them, each a little bigger than the previous. They are made out of 6 ga horse panels. They are heavy but very sturdy.

I had another day of no catches. I pulled my East line. It was a 15 mile round trip and had been in for 10 days with no catches. I was seeing coyote tracks and an occasional Fox track. I had three tripped traps during the 10 days. Dug up by a yote. I may go back after the snow gets off.

The coyotes are moving real hevey right now. They just are not checking out sets and getting caught. I think I will put my West line back in now. It is closer and the yotes are back over there.
