How to trap a coyote?

Watch your dog they will take a small dog or cat fast. A friend lost two small beagles a few years ago to them. When I trained my hunting dogs I always carried a gun after spotting one trying to get close to my dogs. Where I had lived in NY they really got out of hand:(
 
I'm wondering if the guys who said coyotes are easy to trap have ever trapped even one.:rolleyes:

In my experience almost anything is easier to trap than a savy coyote. jd
 
+1 on the not easy to trap. i had an old male last year that would walk my trapline at night and set off all my traps. hed play around and find a stick or a dirt clod to drop on the pan. he thought it was all kinds o fun. then i made an offset trap about 2 feet from the dirtole... he wasnt too happy bout that one ;)
