A variation of your set on sign rule. Sometimes you have to make your own sign. In the Texas panhandle its pasture and ag, not a lot of timber. In January here , the coyotes are breeding.. I would bag coyote scat where I would find it and then make a flat set at the corner of farm road intersections or a point where Ag and pasture meet. My bait was one coyote turd and I would soak it with bought coyote urine. This time of year they are very curious about other coyote's scent marking their territory... or at least its my theory. It also works well on areas where coyotes are trap wary from other trappers. Just wondered what you thought. Love your blog.
Stu. I'm a hunter and a fisherman. I know coyotes are a nuisance animal and need to be kept under control. All I ask is that you dispatch the animal before filming your trap tips. It is one of God's creatures and deserves that respect. I appreciate all you do. Just respect the life you take
Stop be moralizing. This video is excellent. I think this guy has respect for the animals he kills - but on other side, coyote is no pet, it is just a wild nuissance animal. It has just a few minutes of stress because of doing the video - but cows feel stress much longer being slaughtered, for example... We cant treat all animals as pets.
Ummmm... Not everyone believes in Bronze and Iron age War Gods. I don't think it's a requirement for ethical trapping. He made the video like this, not because one of many Blood Gods commanded it, but because anyone can put a dead coyote in a trap and claim it got caught on such and such set but a live coyote in the jaws says it all. It's not gratuitous, what he's doing. Climb off that horse of yours, take a knee, and look down the trail and you'll notice the view changes.
@chuckward8650 Stu has more respect for animals then tormenting them I know I’m two years late responding but I’ve watched this video a dozen times and it’s perfect
I really like watching your videos they're very informative I've tried trapping for coyote before and was unsuccessful now I believe that I have enough confidence after watching your video that I can do it right with that that particular type of set it's it's really a good set man I mean you've taught me alot
I have yotes traveling a roadway through my property. I set up and down that road on the sides in the center everywhere I see tracks but can't get them to come to any set. Even after I pull traps nothing comes to investigate any of the dirt holes or lures or anything. There's always fresh tracks. What am I missing.
Definitely like seeing the catch as well as the set. Just finished fleshing and stretching my first critter. Your videos really helped. Thanks from Nebraska
I'm just getting in to this and thank you for your video. What to you use for bait to get them to the traps and where are good places to put traps at in the woods?
I heard you say a little about scent control I'm new at trapping and set some in the area where I was seeing fox and I seen a pawprint in the dirt close to my set but he didn't work the set hard enough to get caught do you think I'm leaving too much scent there?What do you think it is?
Stu , Thanks for all you do. I live in a residential area and have many arborvitaes that squirrels love to eat. I have tried everything, but they come back the next year. I loathe Squirrels! NW Indiana. Don’t sweat the negative comments, ultimately you have the final dispatch decision. What if somebody’s pet is in the trap?
Pretty good video!! I love that air rifle. What model is it?? I have the Airforce Condor SS .25. Super accurate, very powerful and pretty quiet. Thinking about some custom parts for mine. Hopefully will be pushing out over 105 foot pounds of energy.
Couple years trapping dps for coons. Got 3 dbl coil traps this year. I kneel on a corn sack inside a corn sack. It folds, it rolls, it weighs nothing. Sharing from my vast storehouse of ignorance. 👊
Great video again. Learning a lot from you for my first season trapping. Could you do a video on dispatch gun and location with no blood. I am getting a lot of blood with my sub sonic .22s when dispatching.
Are you sure that its coyote digging up the sets. I put trail cameras on my sets and found it was skunks. Contaminated dirt from the remakes is what my fault was.
I don't hunt or trap but, watching guys like you apply your knowledge on video is interesting. I also watch a guy in Canada and he uses snares. One in particular is called a "Power Ram". He uses huge piles of bait as lure and describes the many trails. Thanks.
Love the video, but really would like to know more on that air gun coon creek, does it put those yotes down pretty good? And do you just put it right between the eyes, ears?
I am no bleeding heart PETA puke just a lifelong hunter BUT why let that coyote suffer in the trap plus terrorize it instead of just punching it's ticket as soon as you could?
Stu, I checked my work line yesterday morning & 2 of my DP's had ALL food gone but the traps didn't fire. We haven't had rain in over a week & temps we're in low 30's. Any idea what happened? I have never seen DP'S completely empty with out a critter in it
I love yalls videos they're highly educational and I have learned a ton from watching this education since I am just starting out with trapping and for now I only have one dp and one bridger 1 3/4
Its great that you will have all these trapping memories as you go through your life and it takes guts to share your catch, i live in the exact center of montana and trapping was the thing i enjoyed most, hunting season in the 70,s was over soon but trapping cats went till april, my best catch was a 40 lb bobcat north east of winefred , in the Missouri river breaks , life never ends and a coyotes life has it ups and downs and they hunt also, play your videos like you do, people dont have to watch, besides your sendind creatures to animal heaven ,a awsome place , where moast everything and everyone goes then and now. lile your sets , and your dont sweat the small stuff way of teaching.
Love what you do even though I'm not allowed to in Australia. We can't even set a crab trap in the open sea. Question. When the dog is rubbed so bad do you still use the pelt for maybe making clothing etc? Also What does the meat taste like? Over here it is not illegal to eat dog but it is illegal to sell it as chicken from takeaways etc. An enjoyable video mate as usual and it's good to see you made your point well. Regards bro.
You're a master baiter son.
lol
Best TH-camr
Agreed
Well i gave the step down dirt hole set a try for the first time and got a nice red fox first night thanks for the videos and please keep them coming
Awesome job! Keep up the full circle videos. They are great for veteran and new trappers. Thank for all your work from PA

This trapper has total respect for the critters , it’s how it is ? No bleeding heart

Awesome videos you do one hell of a job. Great work thank you for putting these out.
Great set up and great job of explaining everything
Enjoyed the video and have a set of the Duke's pro series 550s on the way. South Carolina here and cant wait to start trapping
I have yotes traveling a roadway through my property. I set up and down that road on the sides in the center everywhere I see tracks but can't get them to come to any set.

Amazing that you have a job and still are able to create such entertaining videos. Good job as always.
What pan tension do you normally? Your full circle set is great. It really shows what works and what doesn't for you. No bs tactics
3lb
Very helpful thank you. Seeing it in full circle goes a long way
Do you make your own bait? If so, what does it consist of? Just bought my first set of traps. Thanks.
Can you please tell me what you are using to finish off the coyote?
Nice song dog nice to see your teaching experience you have gained thank you
Do you carry your traps in a different container when going to set out a line?
I love the full circle videos. It’s the whole story. Great stuff may wish to put the full circle all in the same video. 👍👍😎
Set on sign !! 👍 If they ain't there the set doesn't matter. Nice video !!!
Definitely like seeing the catch as well as the set. Just finished fleshing and stretching my first critter. Your videos really helped. Thanks from Nebraska
I'm just getting in to this and thank you for your video. What to you use for bait to get them to the traps and where are good places to put traps at in the woods?
Consider using a game cam to video the catch and direction of travel?
Can you talk about the dispatching shot? Ear hole? Eye? Is a lung/heart shot ok if you want to keep the skull? What’s a proper caliber?
Its awesome seeing all the support for trappers.
I heard you say a little about scent control I'm new at trapping and set some in the area where I was seeing fox and I seen a pawprint in the dirt close to my set but he didn't work the set hard enough to get caught do you think I'm leaving too much scent there?What do you think it is?
got a 21 pound racoon one time at grandma's house best BBQ i ever ate God bless that woman real down home cooking north Carolina style
Trapped when I was a kid, it was a great adventure and we made a few bucks.
So what do you do with the coyote? Please explain. Thanks Andybl
Thanks for showing the catches!!!!
thanks for yet another great video. I always enjoy watching and learning from you.
Shhhhhhh....less talky, more worky! Lol
Learned so much from watching you... keep it up as always awesome videos
Thumbnail goes hard✅💯
Great vid!! Keep up the good work👍👍
Thanks Stu
Great explanation on the remake, and I like your comments about scent control and "over thinking" things!
Good job.
Awesome content. Do you have a video of how you make your wax dirt?
Stu , Thanks for all you do. I live in a residential area and have many arborvitaes that squirrels love to eat. I have tried everything, but they come back the next year. I loathe Squirrels! NW Indiana. Don’t sweat the negative comments, ultimately you have the final dispatch decision. What if somebody’s pet is in the trap?
Good video. Really like the 360 platform
A feed sack works great for a kneeling pad and a spare is always folded up waiting for me to loose the one I'm using. Great videos as always.
Thanks for the tips on this set . Caught my first bobcat last night! It actually checked out my flat set. But the step down set is what was successful
Pretty good video!! I love that air rifle. What model is it?? I have the Airforce Condor SS .25. Super accurate, very powerful and pretty quiet. Thinking about some custom parts for mine. Hopefully will be pushing out over 105 foot pounds of energy.
Thanks for the good info! This is my second year trapping in Pa. and im struggling with the yotes. Good info is always a help. Thanks again!
Very cool! Thanks for the instructive video!
Couple years trapping dps for coons. Got 3 dbl coil traps this year. I kneel on a corn sack inside a corn sack. It folds, it rolls, it weighs nothing.
Sharing from my vast storehouse of ignorance. 👊
I really appreciate this. It's rare to see sets and then catches in them, thanks!
Great video. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge! Always appreciated.
Every time I find the ol dirt hole she slaps me and tells me to stay out of there. 🤪
Another outta work comedian.....
@@outdoorrn2980 I'm glad you liked it he's here all week. Please, be kind to your waitress.
lol I know her too
Proof in the pudding Stu! Great work!
Great video again. Learning a lot from you for my first season trapping. Could you do a video on dispatch gun and location with no blood. I am getting a lot of blood with my sub sonic .22s when dispatching.
Thanks pal. I’ve been havin trouble with coyotes digging up traps.
Are you sure that its coyote digging up the sets. I put trail cameras on my sets and found it was skunks. Contaminated dirt from the remakes is what my fault was.
@@timothyrothrock4173 I didn’t see any skunk tracks around them, so I just assumed it was coyotes.
With bad weather out of play how often are you freshening up on lure
Excellent video, thank’s for sharing!
You are not alone on this planet!
What size trap is best for coyotes.
I don't hunt or trap but, watching guys like you apply your knowledge on video is interesting. I also watch a guy in Canada and he uses snares. One in particular is called a "Power Ram". He uses huge piles of bait as lure and describes the many trails. Thanks.
Good to see you are well stay safe out there till the next video
Good video keep them coming always learn something
I’m new to trapping and I was wandering were u shoot ur coyotes and bobcats to keep from Messing up the hide thanks #cooncreekoutdoors
Heart
Now that’s a solid coyote catch. 👍
Do u use any scents on your flat sets?
Don't forget to watch the ads to help him out!
Hell yes! Full circle videos are the best!
Love the video, but really would like to know more on that air gun coon creek, does it put those yotes down pretty good? And do you just put it right between the eyes, ears?
Great job guys
Great set and another good catch Stu. What do you like about the air force vs rim fire other than noise?
I love useing the Step Down Dirthole. Like you said, they step in full commitment.
Keep kicking ass and taking names brother.
👊💀
Does this set work well in snow covered fields?
Another great video with lots of great information. I'm soaking it all up like a sponge 😊
What’s your take on fleas? Do you worry about them or not really?
Awesome video
Very good information
Will cotton work just as good as sheep’s wool ?????
Great video. Loved getting to see you make the original set and see the results!
Enjoy your videos. What type of urine do you use for targeting coyotes?
I am no bleeding heart PETA puke just a lifelong hunter BUT why let that coyote suffer in the trap plus terrorize it instead of just punching it's ticket as soon as you could?
I think you enjoy the sound of your voice more the trapping 🤫
I love your vids !!
Stu, I checked my work line yesterday morning & 2 of my DP's had ALL food gone but the traps didn't fire. We haven't had rain in over a week & temps we're in low 30's. Any idea what happened? I have never seen DP'S completely empty with out a critter in it
Must have been duke traps
Awesome as always, keep it up bud!! 👍👍
Good video! Thanks
Hey Coon creek outdoors I just started trapping with dog proof what can I use for bait
Dog food, cat food
I appreciate these types of videos. I’m a new trapper so it’s very helpful
How far back from the bait hole do you have the trap pan ?
Would be awesome to show how u pull sets cause my finned super stakes won’t ever come out
Great setup
I love yalls videos they're highly educational and I have learned a ton from watching this education since I am just starting out with trapping and for now I only have one dp and one bridger 1 3/4
Gr8 explanation and nice reset 👌 👍
What do you do with the coyote after you kill it? I don’t think there is hole lo5 of people that eat them.
Love seeing them catches, nice catch
Sharp observation and keeping it simple.
Its great that you will have all these trapping memories as you go through your life and it takes guts to share your catch, i live in the exact center of montana and trapping was the thing i enjoyed most, hunting season in the 70,s was over soon but trapping cats went till april, my best catch was a 40 lb bobcat north east of winefred , in the Missouri river breaks , life never ends and a coyotes life has it ups and downs and they hunt also, play your videos like you do, people dont have to watch, besides your sendind creatures to animal heaven ,a awsome place , where moast everything and everyone goes then and now. lile your sets , and your dont sweat the small stuff way of teaching.
Nice work bud 🤙hell yeah
Love what you do even though I'm not allowed to in Australia. We can't even set a crab trap in the open sea. Question. When the dog is rubbed so bad do you still use the pelt for maybe making clothing etc? Also What does the meat taste like? Over here it is not illegal to eat dog but it is illegal to sell it as chicken from takeaways etc. An enjoyable video mate as usual and it's good to see you made your point well. Regards bro.
A nice comment. I like this guy too. Hope you will get the answer :)
Good call
Thanks going to start this season
Do you eat your catches or do you just trap for pelts?
Absolutely love your videos... 😁👍
Are the Duke #3's ready to go or do you have to tweak anything to make them work the best? Thanks in advance.
