I have a theory I am going to try when I get some shop time.I see them in and out of steel culverts all the time. I bought a chunk of culvert to turn into a live trap to see if I can get some yotes in it.

Odds are long but happens every year. Few of them end up in cages.I could see this working. I saw a coyote off the road one time in a field I could hunt. Drove a little bit to some cover, jumped out to out the sneak on and no coyote. Snuck closer and he was on the other side of the road making good time away from me. Went and checked his tracks and he used a culvert to shoot under the highway.

I have considered this. Most culverts around here are 30" so I thought about building this to slip in that size. Haven't gotten around to it.

We have seen this so many times. They will even sleep in them at times. We have a pond that we built and has a culvert so the water flows out when it gets too high before washing over the pond edge and eroding it. From the right angle a guy can see into it from sways out. I always stop and look. I have killed more than a few yotes laying up in it. It’s partially buried and and stays cool and shaded in the summer they love to lay in it.
In culverts on rds around here they know it’s quicker to dive into a culvert instead of jumping the fences. Since some have hog wire on them and they can’t just run through them.

Also a play I have thought about trying as well on the pond culverts like I mentioned in the above post.

I built a large trap with a electrical sensor to trigger the trap. My dog would not even go in.
Too much food in wa

They always go for old stinky beaver meat bait
I think you are on to something. How many of the coyotes you have caged had mange or other health issues that might have made them extra desperate?

Number 2 this year at the same farm.
Is this a home made trap, or one that you can purchase?
Thank you.

Commercial trap. I have caught 9 n 5 different commercial traps
I want to try this for ADC work! I have a few larger cage traps. Tell me more about how you set for them and what bait/lure you would use in the summer (when "old stinky beaver bait" gets completely eaten by maggots in just a couple of days. How deep in earth do you cover the cage bottom? Do you brush the trap in heavily? etc.
