180 coyotes. Not enough mud on the truck to write the number there....gave up on the "8" and just wrote it on a card! LOL Ah, the winter that wasn't......the season that was. Snapping off behind my house, quarry, and boss's farm tomorrow at first light.......OK with ZERO catches tomorrow......first time I am willing to accept that as an outcome this year! Last week's trapping was stellar......wish I had 100 traps out and/or just took it off as vacation. Ah, hindsight.................... Blew away my best season ever on coyotes which was last year, 135 coyotes. The lack of winter was the difference, hands down. Three more throw-away manged coyotes this week.....coyotes that shoulda been dead a long time ago with a normal winter. Little worried about next year and mange percentages. Put a fork in me...........I'm done. Plenty of fur to put up.....hope to take a nice picture.......call it a season. My best one to date............ Zagman

Mark; your success's are inhuman so it is hard to come up with words that you have never heard before so the old CONGRATS will have to be my choice again this year. Job well done.

Wow...the obvious results of high populations, plenty of free time on your hands, and a good pellet rifle....... ;D
Truly.....a remarkable season, not only in the numbers but in the dedication to your craft. Being able to work a full time job and nail those numbers is true grit. Congrats!

Mark, I overlooked this thread because I thought the Valentines Day subject was literal... I'm an idiot <grin>
Super congrats on a world-class coyote season for anybody, anywhere. The local deer and small game population in your area is forever in debt to you :>)

Mark, there's nothing I can say to you that I have not already said before. Congratulations AGAIN ! I will say though, every time I'm bent over this fleshing beam, getting darn awfully sick of fleshing and stretching beavers, I think to myself "it coud be worse, I could working on coyotes like Zagger is". It makes putting up beavers almost fun ;D
