i am a beginner targeting specifically coyotes. Last year was my first year trapping, and i started durinig the last 2 weeks of the season. I made a dirthole set and a flat set and within 5 days i picked up a 40lb female on the flat set. This year, i started getting traps in the ground right after regular firearms season for deer. From then til now, i have hooked up, and lost 4 coyotes. I have been bedding my bridger #3 4x4's rock solid, and then roughly 1/2" of cover in peat moss, then blending in with surrounding area as i am using mainly flat and scent post sets. Is the peat moss on top too loamy causing a pull back reaction? Is my pan tension too light? I want to say roughly 2 lbs of pressure.. any help is appreciated.
