Every year I put a few traps out for coon, mink, and muskrat. Most of them are 1 1/2 coilsprings and some conibears. I had this one set down by a tiny creek on a pretty good coon trail. I thought for sure I was gunna catch some coons there. On the second day I was checking them and to my great surprise I saw a coyote in one of my coilsprings. Since i was riding my ex I didn't have my trapping stuff along so I rode back to my uncles house to borrow his .22. After I shot her I looked at the trap and it was barely holding on by the two middle toes on the front foot. Needless to say I was pretty excited to catch a coyote even though it was only a small one. I can't decide if I want to get her tanned and keep it or sell when I sell my coon skins.
