douge, my friend did do better on coyotes, 5 years ago than he did last year..reason is, i think, not him, is when there is lotsof snow, yotes stay to roads and pipelines..

most trappers cover territory,they put traps all along roads..this way they can see traps without walking in woods and use binuculars to check them..

last few years the winters have been warm with no snow or less snow..so, yotes stay in woods or on pipelines and dont walk the roads as much..

so, trappers have traps near roads and yotes are WAYBACK as some want you to think..thats it, DOUGE, they are WAYBACK!! oh my!!

germain,there was more buck in there this year BUT poaching did number on them..we found 5 bucks without heads on and 1 with head on..this was in the newspaper..if i had guess which way poachers came from it would be SNOWSHOE AREA or UP BEECHCREEK RD.from beechcreek..i dont think they were from renovo,just guess..

i hunted grouse there with my beagle mix..it was so thick, i could not get thru it..i really did not see a lot of deer there..i will pm you in next few weeks after talking to camps in that area on what they saw..

i did see lots of traps and my beagle got in then 2 times..i saw yote poo all over place..
