Hear ya 100% KDM, when I heal up from surgery last week going to go out and set a snare line on some land I can hunt for coyotes. This will be the second year trying and a lot of learning.
Give JMF a shout duk. He runs some stuff out your way and is a wealth of info on coyote snaring. I'm of little help as my habitats are vastly different from your's out there and I use different techniques. He's the guy I go to when I have questions. Between the two of us, we can usually figure something out. Good luck and post pics of your yotes!!!!
