Wes,
Thank you. All of my traps are within about 10 feet of running water. I caught a few up in the woods so far but they seem to be running the creeks and open water now.
I use only dog proof style coon traps, largely to to avoid unfortunate situations like you ran into with this trespasser.
The last thing I want to do is catch and potentially injure someone's dog.

Thanks Chevy for the FYI.
If it stays cold like this, running water will be a good bet for finding coons. It seems like each year there is about a two week lull after Thanksgiving. Maybe resting up for the rut.
Have enjoyed seeing your pictures.
