Yeah. I like to try new settings. Every once in a while you find one that works better than your own. Set ability for your area may not work in mine. But I enjoy being out there.
Dude!!! You are legit!!!! Keep it real always!!!! I already started to watch your old ones (about 4yrs old videos) learning in fast forward!!! Rookie here saying thanks!!! 💯
I liked the fact that Cody never put a knee down. Even when setting the traps. Hey Stu, like the new intro and thanks for bringing this other trapper's ideas and sets in on your channel. Cody congrats on catching 74 .
In Pa it seems like the more you catch the more pups they have. The population of yotes has a direct connection to the population of deer. When they exhaust the deer the yotes will move on and be gone for a few years until the deer recover. They eat a lot of turkey and ground hogs rabbit
You were spot on with the more you trap the more pups they have. Meat eater podcast had on a fellow who discussed this I can’t remember the guys name but it was one of the earlier podcasts. The guy said there’s evidence that shows coyotes can determine population sizes in their area and it changes the size of the litter based on population density. Check out the podcast.
Ok, it's a walk-thru hay set. Cool idea... Sweet location. So explain how this is eliminating the freeze issue. He's bedding the trap right in that wet soil. Granted the hay won't freeze, but that soil will. How that bypasses the need for antifreeze or waxed dirt.... You get down below freezing... Frozen solid.
Can also use horse manure, it does not freeze the ground! That's what we use! We also use wax paper over the pan and under the jaws with a split in middle to go around tongue so nothing will fall down under pan! The straw will help hide human smell!
Lot of good trappers in the business hope fur prices come back again people don't realize fur is a renewable resource we as trappers must spread the truth about the good trappers do .
I’m a trapper For over 30 years, I taught myself how to catch coyotes I trap for numbers I average 180 to 230 coyotes every year I to have a very simple way I make my sets and I only have only have 3dz traps which I very rarely use all of them I work for myself in the fall winner 60 hours a week On top of trapping coyotes, I don’t get much sleep, but I love it I believe anyone that traps for numbers has to have their way. I’m making their set.
So last year was my first year trapping and I only caught a few foxes no coyotes. So Yesterday I did a straw set with 2 traps at the hole and dang if I didn't catch my first Coyote!!!!!! I finally found out what works for me!!! .....So my TH-cam Education finally paid off!!!
I trapped for a couple years and caught everything BUT a fox. I caught yotes and a couple cats but not 1 fox. I'm about to pull it all back out and get after a dang on fox!
@@jamesgentry6864 try railroad tracks any property near railroad tracks usually has foxes I have caught a bunch just using stepdown dirt holes and I wasn't even trying to get fox I. Was trying to get coyotes and bobcats
@@jamesgentry6864 also in most states the railroad is public I'm in Kentucky and most people here never even saw a fox just coyotes but that's were they are hopefully you can get one
my grandpa did this 60 years ago in northwest ia. always caught coyotes the straw also attracts mice that the coyotes will go digging for, increasing the numbers of coyotes you'll catch he never used any lure
We have a 20k hen egg laying barn with 50 acres of pasture for our hens to forage. We also have coyotes. I’m sharing your videos with my son/farm partner. I’d sure love to get rid of the predators.
I learned a variation of this set at Dan Bishops school of fox and coyote trapping back in I believe 1983. It has served me very well ever since. Besides snares I use it almost exclusively once the ground freezes. It’s just simple and very effective.
@@johnboy9465 trapping is kinda like the homesteading on TH-cam. There’s not much new just old ways are being revisited. Most have never seen the old ways so they are really impressed with what they believe to be a new way.
Peat moss as great as well I hear. Repels water and keeps the soil dry. Edit: i’ve also heard of a lot of people using poly fill in similar texture material under the plate to prevent moist dirt from getting in and freezing it.
Man I gotta differ with you on the short chain not pumping the stake out statement you made. Longer chains will pull sideways on the stake NOT upward. With a short chain the animal can direct the force upward over the trap and stake thus eventually pulling the stake out as they fight the trap. I understand the arguments on longer chains vs. shorter and how they get more/less leverage from room to lunge. Just another aspect of trapping that will always be debated. Anyway keep up the great vids. Peace
You’re right on this. I use rebar 75% of the time with short chains (8”). I do have a lot of stakes “pumped” out of the ground up to 8”-10” out from coyotes.
Agree on short chain pumping. I think he may have just made a mistake in words. He’s been trapping a long time. The longer the chain,the less possibility of your stake failing. I went to cable stakes a few years back and now they’re my main staking system, however I was brought up on rebar.
Here is what I have found on my traplines. Short chain, run a long stake, long chain you can get away with a shorter stake. They can all get pumped up but shorter chain seems to pump up more.
I think we can all agree that each location determines how we stake. I personally use all 16" cable stakes with 8" chains. I think when an animal has lots of chain to get a running start that more foot damage occurs and causes more stress to the animal which makes it fight even harder. I believe we owe it to the animal to keep the damage to a minimum. The less ammunition the anti-trappers have against us the better off we are.
I agree with setting on sign, but sometimes a place just looks good and has none. One place I set up because of the looks alone produced as many and more in a lot of places that had tons of sign. The area was really small and grass, so no tracks or droppings, but there was something about it and I was right. I also used hay sets on my line along with others
Great video ! We have so many coyotes around here & not so many trappers anymore, I use to do a lot of trapping in my younger days, that set with straw or dry grass aways been a hit for me too,
Looks like a simple combination blind and dirt hole set, the straw or grass is the key to the set working, the straw gives the coyote confidence in its placement of its paws
Just started watching you. The wife and I really enjoyed your content. Very educational. Your awesome at everything you do. Stay humble. Love your videos. Thank you
So, MI just announced a change in the coyote season and it’s peaked my interest in catching these predators. I convinced my girlfriend that I should trap her property to protect nesting animals and be a responsible conservationist. Thanks for this video and tutorial. Tight chains ⛓️ guys. Subbed 😊
Thank you CODY for showing the hay set...I have a hay farm...I will make a hay set too day...I am very new to trapping...Just trying to help the turkeys and fawns...from the damn predators...Thanks again...
QUESTION for anyone - Great vid as always! Can I use this set in timber? The hay will look out-of-place but maybe with the 6' diameter it is ok. I'm a newbie and so far have only trapped body gripper water sets. Thanks.
Trapping g mad u lot "can I use them here"? "Will they work in" ?*** Pests , I'm surprised there isnt any traps put down for human pests either running around like rats, or herding like sheep, yeah stick a few of those down random in streets ,towns citys we r getting ovr run with these hairless monkeys just running all ovr this floating rock 👁
I'm new to the channel but just wanted to thank you for the knowledge my good man. All I've ever done is hunt Coyotes. Just bought the gear to make a few sets and going to try out the last month of the season here in WV. They killed 3 of my shooter bucks this year and that means war. Again thanks for the learnin sir!
Bed the trap in and also cover with peat moss with a bit if glycerin added. Just enough glycerin to knock down the dust from the peat moss. It works great for me here in North Dakota.
Blows My mind when uneducated people make nasty comments about someone's video when they have no education about the subject matter. Learn about the traps, this is not the early 1900's there are no traps with sharp teeth being used to put these destructive animals in pain , these traps have rubber jaws that allow us trappers to release these animals uninjured or release them if you catch a non target animal. Great video and I can't wait to try this setup on my line. Keep the content coming.
Thanks for informing me about them traps wish he would've said that & pointed all that before I've left him sim nasty comments But he's a big I'm sure he'll get over it...
Very informative! Obviously it works because he’s caught a decent number of coyotes, but does the trap jaws freeze, or does the straw/hay help insulate it. Thanks for sharing this set, and like always a great video.
I would imagine the straw soaks up a lot of the moisture from the ground and so it doesn’t freeze very easily. I would also assume that the straw there’s a little bit to divert rain. I don’t know this for a fact, but I’m just assuming based on how the material is.
Don't you notice that each of those coyotes that you slaughtered were sentient and living, and they were killed needlessly when they did not want to die. 🌱
Always nice to learn another technique and take valuable info from successful trappers and incorporate that knowledge to fit your style. Thanks for posting. Mike in sunny Florida
I'm in uk. They look like what I would call a gin trap, where the target animal stands on a plate and releases two jaws which grip its leg. Been illegal here for a very long time. Effective though. Or so I understand from others, I hasten to add. We use cage traps or snares for foxes, no coyotes here.
They certainly do here in North Dakota. I bed and cover the trap with peat moss that has some glycerin mixed in, just enough to knock the dust down from the peat moss. Could sling a bunch of straw around the area as they do in the video after setting the trap as described.
We used to use chicken straw it was full of feathers and coyotes love to work those sets always used to traps one one the dowind side and one one the prevailing wind side .
always used a double hook drag with a 6/8 ft chain. Used number 4 double long spring Newhouse traps. I always trapped west texas with very little moisture. My best trapping was along roads. Animals look for road kill or food thrown out from vehicles.
I’ve been using your ideas to catch coyote. I have lost a dozen good laying hens to coyotes. If I hang the carcass of a coyote near my henhouse, will that detract other coyotes from killing my chickens? I really enjoy your videos. I have learned a lot.
@Average GIJoe Outdoors It's a trick that a lot of old timers used to use. My Dad taught me that when I was just knee high to a grasshopper. I believe you'll find that it works really well. Good luck!
5 out of 74..found all 5 though, dont usually go far...yes theres better ways to stake, i used what i had handy n it just stuck with me, n i do enjoy a good dog chase lol
Not a trapper but enjoy both the fishing and trapping videos. FWIW, the collaboration with and filming of how other trappers do it, especially one as successful as Cody, is good for the channel. Coyotes are Wiley beasts, no pun intended, so it is pretty fascinating to see how they are outsmarted and turned into a pelt, rather than a pesky wild carnivore. Nice video!😊
Hi, Bryant, exactly my thoughts! I have several pelts hanging on the walls (foxes, a badger, a hog... /not a coyote but I wear a coyote fur trim/) and I love how these wild pest beasts can be turned into something soft, tidy-looking, which is hanging on my wall peacefully. A wild predator is killed, skinned and now can’t harm nobody, serves just to humans’ pleasure. It is not only a nice decoration for me but it also gives me pride of trappers or hunters who hunted these beasts and turned em into something useful. I am not a trapper too, but I am glad I can support their job with buying the results of their hard work from time to time 😊. These beasts are nasty but traps and guns are powerful! I love hunting and trapping videos too. And I like Coon Creek Outdoors - it shows a trapper can be a sympathic friendly young man not only a bearded weirdo! Do you collects pelts, hides or trophies etc too?
I could see it as the clump of grass a coyote would be curious to find a mouse or rodent in the grass pile as the bait would be a lure also you should try a rabbit or squirrel catch clean cook sometime for a video.
22 minutes showing a talking head and 3 minutes at the end showing the result. This i a true amateur video.
How would you feel if you caught yourself in it and spent a night in real pain! It might be the same as cancer pain! Because that’s what happens to people who are cruel ! It will come back on you. Cruel bastard. Why not shoot the animals if they bother you that much.
I just wonder why you would watch this video if you didn't like the content. As far as cancer. My mother died of cancer and never trapped a mouse.
It's the set he's showing and how to make it that's important. Showing it works is a bonus.......why be nasty?

How did you measure your pan tension. Is it a feel thing or something like a trigger pull measuring tool?

How does he keep from having the jaws of the trap freeze to the mud? Looks like he bedded the trap in mud without any wax dirt.
Thats what i was wondering too.. always have the jaws freeze down to the ground in the mud
Bed the trap in and also cover with peat moss with a bit if glycerin added. Just enough glycerin to knock down the dust from the peat moss. It works great for me here in North Dakota.
Just sprinkle the ground with salt, trap would freeze

Trying to understand.
Won’t the trap still freeze to that wet ground?

What do you want/need to know to set it in an effective place?
Nice logo definatley like to see that on a longsleeve shirt 👍👍

So happy I watched this video…I now know what I was doing wrong…I will correct it this season, thank you!
I’m definitely trying this set now, thanks for the info.
The banjo was nice I like that straw set and the logo is really cool
In red dead 2 only about $3.50
always used a double hook drag with a 6/8 ft chain. Used number 4 double long spring Newhouse traps. I always trapped west texas with very little moisture. My best trapping was along roads. Animals look for road kill or food thrown out from vehicles.
Wow 70 coyotes! imagine how many mice they ate every night
Pretty simple. I bet the hay acts as a good insulator. Thanks for sharing.
How do you mark the trap sets so the property owner or a worker doesn't accidentally walk into them? Or the owner's pet for that matter.
I'm sure at some point in his trapping career he has trapped someone's dog 🐕😢
H
Pets shouldnt be running loose in nature, they are predators. So, no harm if a cat or a dog get trapped. It is the owner’s fault.
Great video enjoyed something different 👍
Good video again 😊
I’ve been using your ideas to catch coyote. I have lost a dozen good laying hens to coyotes. If I hang the carcass of a coyote near my henhouse, will that detract other coyotes from killing my chickens? I really enjoy your videos. I have learned a lot.

@Average GIJoe Outdoors It's a trick that a lot of old timers used to use. My Dad taught me that when I was just knee high to a grasshopper. I believe you'll find that it works really well. Good luck!
Mark Zagger. None better in our great land..Period.
That was amazing!! Thanks so much for sharing that! I live in northern Illinois and will be trying that next year!!
How does he have his single stake method setup?
I just send it right through the swivels.

@@codylogan148 lol gotcha congrats on the season 74 is a lot of work
Not a trapper but enjoy both the fishing and trapping videos. FWIW, the collaboration with and filming of how other trappers do it, especially one as successful as Cody, is good for the channel. Coyotes are Wiley beasts, no pun intended, so it is pretty fascinating to see how they are outsmarted and turned into a pelt, rather than a pesky wild carnivore. Nice video!😊
Hi, Bryant, exactly my thoughts! I have several pelts hanging on the walls (foxes, a badger, a hog... /not a coyote but I wear a coyote fur trim/) and I love how these wild pest beasts can be turned into something soft, tidy-looking, which is hanging on my wall peacefully. A wild predator is killed, skinned and now can’t harm nobody, serves just to humans’ pleasure. It is not only a nice decoration for me but it also gives me pride of trappers or hunters who hunted these beasts and turned em into something useful. I am not a trapper too, but I am glad I can support their job with buying the results of their hard work from time to time 😊. These beasts are nasty but traps and guns are powerful! I love hunting and trapping videos too. And I like Coon Creek Outdoors - it shows a trapper can be a sympathic friendly young man not only a bearded weirdo! Do you collects pelts, hides or trophies etc too?
I could see it as the clump of grass a coyote would be curious to find a mouse or rodent in the grass pile as the bait would be a lure also you should try a rabbit or squirrel catch clean cook sometime for a video.
Sorry if this is a dumb question : How do you keep deer from getting caught in the traps?
Great video !!!
You should do a video of shooting snow geese. I hear them call your name.
