I killed fezent, quail ,cotten tail with my new girlfriend next year God willing going 2 kill ducks and hopefully a big old honker, cackler,speck and a snow or maby just 1 of the 4 I hope.

We have about 18" of snow and 24" drifts here in youngstown Ohio...Im gunna grab some buckshot, my 30" tight choked GHE and go look for coyotes. They have been plundering the area...have attacked hunting dogs...and killed small pets in recent days here in ohio. They have lost their fear of humans and need terminated!..., a 1929 Parker can do the job...Ill call it the terminator.....(-: Thanks all Kenny Graft SXS ohio....(-:

Git 'em Kenny! I hate those critter more than anything other than maybe crows.

More snow than we've had in quite a while. Pete and Bucko and I (too much snow for old Bonnie, Clyde and Max) went looking for bunnies today. The bunnies are smarter the we are and stayed holed up. The forecast doesn't call for a thaw for sometime; gotta get used to it. Got enough fuel for another 3 or 4 days then I've got to buck and break another load for the wood wagon.

Calvin: I caught the trout in a trout pond the State of Kansas stocks at the Wildlife and Parks that is about a mile from my house. jvb

I saw a dead coyote in the median on my way to work this morning that wasn't there yesterday... I kinda snickered to myself quietly... one of the "good" ones I thought, if you know what I mean.

Lee: Not tmi. Cold steel or warm partner? -30 February. Hmmmmmmm......
Richard: Good advice. I slipped into 3 feet of loose powder on a shorter pair. Another -30 hunt in the '90's and my hunting partner could only watch me struggle to free myself. Took 1/2 hour, pain and injury ultimately required to avoid hypothermia.
Coyotes: Saskatchewan has a problem and recently introduced a Coyote Control Program $20 per up to max $50,000 per individual. Now that's a lot of 'yotes for one Parker. Don't imagine there will be anyone max out. Even though plentiful, they are plenty smart too.

Jack,

That's good to know, will encourage some trapping on them for certain.

As well as the bounty, the hide can still be marketed so a successful hunter/trapper could do alright. I understand some states are monitoring this program's results for possible implementation. I chuckled a bit at this newspaper column clip:


The $20 bounty won't solve the problem, but it will provide a bit more incentive to hunters and trappers in the wake of depressed fur prices. More than anything, it's a sign the government recognizes a coyote problem.

Those who worry about the bounty tarnishing Saskatchewan's image should hunker down in their basements and watch some more Walt Disney re-runs.

I saw three coyotes on the hiway between Anchorage and Fairbanks last Saturday. They get really fat and shiny up here; nothing like the mangy scrawny furless things you see down south. I ran over one with a 1 ton pickup at 85mph up north once.... that was amusing to say the least.... They seem to be decimating deer in a big way.....I thought that was MY job...!
