I am fairly close to you and have the same problem.
I use to have 2 English Mastiffs 155 & 175lbs, and they did not like coyotes. They weren"t fast enough to run them down, but would chase them any chance they got.
Now I have 2 mountain feist terriers. Mean as all get out, but at 20-25lbs, they are no match for coyotes.
I agree with MarkB and others. I killed a coyote with a .22LR 10/22. But its all I had in my hand. And it was 25 yards. Likely will never happen again.
I use a 30-.06 with 55 grain sabot loads or a 12 gauge with #4 when we are running them.
I am not sure how to bait, don"t wanna hurt my dogs or my neighbors. I believe by Michigan law you have to check your traps every 24 hours.
With you not being there, not sure how you are going to thin them successfully. My best plan has been to scan the fields right at dawn every morning before I leave for work.
