I had two wily coyotes that had gotten to within 50-ft of me when I was getting ready to launch ....
I swear ... I could hear them licking their chops!

Good fishing! It's weird how brave the yotes are getting. Saw one walking down the street in hacienda heights at dusk a few days ago, didn't even bat an eye when he walked through traffic....

34 fish before noon, what a nice morning out. Looks like you are going to need to pick up a coyote stamp for bonus points. Catch and release shots only.  

Thanks for sharing Dan/
