[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 705324, member: 13632"] I've worked a little on modifying our coyote gear so it won't shell but I really don't want to educate wolves either but from what I've seen it's going to happen, your not going to coyote trap with wolf traps since the dollars are insane but you'd catch them high and I really hate that. I think I may drag more coyote traps and add some chain in areas that I may get a wolf also. They touched on snares and it came down to what I'm afraid of and that was non target catches, mainly deer. I really like snaring and build a smoking coyote killing snare and I honestly don't want to see wolf snaring, the amount of deer caught would be high I think. I do everything to keep deer out of snares and I still have had deer get smoked in my coyote snares, raise them another 10-12 inches and double the loop and your going to stack deer up IMO. The class really brought to light that the wolf trapping is putting trapping as a whole in the spot light, we're under a micro scope this year and one screw up would be disastrous, not only for wolf trapping but it would have repercussion for trapping as a whole . Some of MT regs were made based on only one pic from last years Idaho season, that one pic almost killed wolf trapping in the lower 48!!! [/QUOTE]
