The Best Coyote Trapping Advice for Rookies | Predator Trapping 101
Join a family of trappers as they run a real line in tough, frozen conditions on a farm they've never trapped in western Kentucky. Along the way you'll learn the basics of making an effective dirt-hole set for coyotes, how to properly bed traps, and how to choose trapping locations in a new area. You'll get to see a couple coyote catches and a bobcat, too.

I’m glad/grateful that Realtree is showing videos about trapping/predator removal! It’s something that is hunters should focus more on!

[@deadpinecollective]

I’m a teacher in British Columbia Canada and take students out to my trapline 4-5 days a week. We have a TH-cam channel documenting the line with students. I’m always learning new techniques and info to pass on to my students. Glad I found your channel

First year trapping and I’ve already fell in love with it!!

I’m 77 been trapping off an on 70 years , it gets into your blood

[@davecollier8054]

These are good people. Good Americans. Good instructor also!

[@kennethflynn2469]

Nice video, I trap my property for same reason. Each year I see the pheasant, turkey, and deer populations getting bigger. And the rabbits. That first coyote will get you hooked. Trying to outsmart them into stepping on your traps

[@kennethflynn2469]

Keep extra bucket of dry dirt for blending traps in when it's muddy out. Old barns, under bridges usually you can access the dirt

[@patrickhershey3134]

Excellent video. Thank you.

Furs are best type of clothes for winters worst Weather

Question: This is my first yr trapping. I’m using Bridger #2 dogless too…. I’ve had 3 coyotes escape now! Finding fur and catch circle but no dog. How is this happening??? I use pest moss, wax dirt, salt combo..

[@pjb3614]

Sounds like they may be rolling on your set. If the hair is long they are setting the trap off with there body. Try putting lure and bait deep in the hole. Avoid the skunky smells to close to your trap. The like to roll in the smelly stuff.

[@barryrowland2095]

Try adjusting your pan tension to 3.5-4 lbs, should get better pad catch with that. Won’t pull out

[@jessejohnson9738]

@@barryrowland2095 thanks

[@jessejohnson9738]

@@pjb3614 okay thanks… there have been catch circles two of the three times tho, which makes me think it was feet but the third time had fur in trap but not catch circle so probs a roll

[@ryanwalsh2995]

Tighten up your pans make sure traps are all firing crisp and bed them tight you've had atleast one roller not sure how far these sets are apart but you got educated dogs now your gonna have to be creative to get them to commit I would def look for a less conventional set next to your other set or just a little distance down the travel way with different bait or lure stay committed and keep them traps firing on the incoming fronts you'll get him !

[@aaronsstuff6575]

Nice job and great video showing what it is all about.

[@huntinfishinwithDwayne]

I got caught just yesterday, lol. Scared me more than hurt. I’m using Bridger #3

[@dennisdial7872]

Get a piece of 2x6 or 1x4 use it as a backing when setting traps

[@chrisw422]

That makes no sense

[@johnbitzer2311]

Hey buddy like your video i am knew at this any tips

[@HHHexotics]

This family should learn to tan the hides! It would teach Anse a lot more! Don't get me wrong. To do a good tanning job it is A LOT of work but it's worth it and you can sell them for way more money to the right people!

[@welborneoutdoors7418]

Do u dispatch behind the shoulder or in the head?

[@chrisw422]

What is that question again?

[@welborneoutdoors7418]

@@chrisw422 do u shoot a predator behind the shoulder or in the head once u catch it in a trap

[@813bam]

@@welborneoutdoors7418 I have the same question. I've had people say that its easier to sew a .22 hole in the side vs the damage a bullet does to skull shards. Makes it easier to skin if you heart shoot them he said

[@finsfurfeathers4876]

where can i find your lure??

[@chrisw422]

Fart and save it in a jar

[@markpiersall9815]

Coyote populations should not merely be controlled for Numbers, but Size as well. Larger Coyotes kill 110,000 Cattle a year. Smaller Coyotes also have a shorter period of time when Goat Kids and Sheep Lambs are considered highly desirable Popsicles. State Natural Resources Wildlife Biologists should have the live catch traps to conduct ongoing capture operations and dispatch those deemed to be too large and release the small and average size Coyotes. This should apply to Bobcats as well.

[@jarredladuke]

It's hard to show up somewhere and set traps and be successful. I do think you can get a little closer with your dispatch... However great first couple of days.

The beginning where he says all the deer standing around looking and that means “obviously nothing in that trap” is extremely false being as deer are curious animals. I’ve caught wolves amd as I’m coming across the field theirs 3 or 4 deer 50-100 yards of it

The Bridger #2 is the way to go!

[@chrisw422]

Bridger is cheap junk

[@prayingmother]

They eat the coyotes?

[@RedWaterCatfish]

Nope, just for fur, and to save the deer.

Their not smart their wild. Smart coyotes would go to state parks were nobody can trap.

You can never kill all of any species

[@tylerbartnick6286]

Yes, because no animal has ever gone extinct.

[@Ryno1211]

Yall should be ashamed of yourselves! Shooting that beautiful animal.
