I'm thinking of trying my hand at thinning out the local coyote population this winter. Is there a thread here that gives me the A-Z on coyote trapping? How far apart should traps be? Lures? Sets? What type traps? Or, should I use snares?

I have 40 acres and there's another 125 acres right behind mine that is mostly wooded, with the rest being a part time gravel pit.

I'm pretty much a noob at trapping, unless you count the time I caught the neighbor's wandering tomcat when I was a teenager.

Thanks.
