In this episode I discuss some news, go over the results of this week’s Fur Harvesters Auction, review a Herb Lenon book, and discuss trap modification. Specifically, I go into detail on modifying old or less-than-desirable new foothold traps to make them suitable for coyote trapping.

Oregon also has offset jaw law for # 3 traps or trap with inside jaw spread of 6 inches or greater need 3/16 inch offset. By the way,Great Pod cast. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. Would like to know the verdict on the coyote sale at Fur Harvesters Auction when you get the results.

Thanks Les, I appreciate it! No word on coyote average from FHA yet. You can download the catalog with all of the individual prices for coyotes in the auction, but no averages. Looking through the catalog, it looks like a fair number of coyotes did not sell during the auction, but there was probably a lot of action in the private treaty room afterward.

Fha coyote averages are up. Not bad!
