    Mr Lowryyou have that trapping coyotes down to a fine art. Definitely thinning them out.
    I wish that was the case but there seems to be a never ending supply of coyotes

    Had 2 more on camera at that location overnight, possibly a third

          Are you selling pelts? I haven’t sold any in years. What are they worth these days?

            Most of these are rough looking
            I skinned one of the nicer ones to get tanned for my daughter

            I bet you would be lucky to get $1 for a "prime" southern coyote. Last time I looked the western ones were not bringing $20
            More money to be made on glands and skulls than a hide and even with the numbers I am catching the check would be small.

            ADC work on big ranches is how you make money on Texas coyotes
            And I am nowhere near good enough to be a professional trapper

              33, female in a t bone set yesterday.
              We're skinning and trying to sell a few up here, tanning the rest for sale later.
              #8 for us.

ID:	27030157 Trapper got another one. He said a female in heat and dead. He suspects a male coyote killed her.

                        Was running my Hog Dogs the other night when I saw this guy lope out in front of them. First kill with my thermal.

                                I petitioned the mods to combine this thread with okrattler's thread (started 2 days before I started this one) but since it has not been done and I have approval from okrattler I am adding the 6 there to this count


                                There's a healthy population of them this year. Have a few calling contest coming up so I hope to add several to this thread pretty soon. Unfortunately the fur market ain't worth a dang so looks as though I'll be a contest guy this year. If the war in Ukraine would ever come to a stop that would change. Post up your coyote



                                New total is 55

                                Thanks
