Glad your fishin is good! We are alumni, and my daughter is a J School grad. Love it, and Columbia. Nothing but great memories.
Back on topic, I've not seen that many coyotes at our place. Almost every morning in a deer stand I'll see one, but just one. Lots of droppings around the pond though.
I have more fox up there than anything. There's a grey and red female that had a litter of pups last spring in a big brush pile behind the house. I suspect they might be hurting the quail and rabbit populations a bit, but mostly keep the mice numbers down.
I did find a deer leg on the dam last year. I suspected the local dog pack.
We don't have an over abundance of deer in our area. Too many hunters. Same with turkeys.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
