1 1/2 coils for yotes

[trap setter]

Hello bogman i have a question,,I plan on using 1 1/2 coils for yotes soft catches that have been baseplated with d-rings and a 56 pound shock spring and 4 swivels,and only 6 inches of chain 3 at the trap and 3 at the stake,,if this is to small can i use two traps at the dirt hole??,,, this is only because its the law with the chain an d soft catch, give me a yell back thanks Dave

 Dave, I am afraid your results will be lacking,even using 2 traps. If you must use soft carch traps, go to a number 3.

I realize you addressed this to Bogmaster but I'll throw in and second his opinion.  If just targeting coyotes, the 1 1/2  is a little small and I would use at least a #2.  I have caught and held our western coyotes in a 1.65 consistantly, but they have been incidental catches and the set was initially ment for fox.
