Made it out on saturday night for 3 sets. On my first set i had 2 barking back however i couldn't get them. The last 2 sets came up empty. Slow start but it will pick up real quick.

I did 6 sets Saturday night and didn't kill anything. Had a good size coyote come in on the last set but didn't get a shot off. Had he paused for another second or two I would have had him on the ground dead. The way it goes sometimes. Going to wait for another couple weeks before I start hunting them real hard. More time for the fur to prime up.

first night called in 4 fox, 1 coon, and had a pack of coyotes open up on us about 200 yards away.  Forrest did get the coon.   2nd night called in 1 grey which Forrest shot, also had a coyote barking at us on one stand on the way in.

Went for Coyotes rather than foxes, called all blanks. Had to work all day Saturday, so I called it a night around 3am. Switchy winds and hard gusts might have been the unraveling of the sets. Couldn't get out due to work for the rest of the weekend. Soon though!

Good luck guys
