Here is a link that was posted on another board about coyotes by Dave at Critter Buster came calls. He spent some time there and liked the information and people.
Here is the link that was posted on another board about coyotes. I know it is in the north east, but some pretty good information. I am sure it can help put some myths to rest and probably start new ones.

And, I stumbled across this video while losing attention for the lecture. I wonder if the guy in this video ever heard of the original innovator of Dykem for night hunting....me? And, the first to promote it on the Internet?
Some day, I will receive the glory I deserve.

I already think you are known for a lot of stuff and a run with the well know or I would not have posted this information on your board for professional opinions and discussions.
But if you are up set with this kid just out of high school not giving you recognition and it makes you feel better, I will spend the rest of the day telling people the original innovator of Dykem for night hunting was you. However AL Gore invented the internet so I would have the ability to tell everyone. But when I do this I might be thanking Al Gore and you in the same time. If so, I will not be able to tell anyone, I never like Al Gore

sorry LB. that was me. I did not know who was the first guy that came up with it. I just thought one day that it might work. tried it and liked it. I have found that these boards now a days I do not say who was the first to came up with it. there is allways someone that came up with it first. I never say in the video that I was the first to come up with it. only stateing that is what I use. I caught a lot of hell about this video from all the pros saying that I am too new at this to be doing videos and putting them up. the way I figured atleast I was giving information that I came up with. this is the way I hunt not the way it has to be done. after explaining how I use lights a million times I figured it would be easier to make a short vid. I have nothing but the intrest in helping others learn how to hunt predators. takereasy LB from the ungrateful kid.
ps I hoped you picked up the sarcasim in the last line sir. I pretty much just lurk here and do not really post much. hopefully learning something along the way.
PSS ernie I been out of high school for 5 years so does that qualify as just out of high school?

No need for apologees, ben. My point was that since I first began sharing knowledge of this (the use of Dykem) on the Internet, it has multiplied many times over and nobody remembers the source.
Believe me, I consider Dykem to be a very valuable tool for night hunting and am proud of my discovery. Previously, we were using plastic, or red paint. The plastic added weight, or wasn't durable, if using film. The red paint scorched. Dykem is virtually permanent, virtually weightless, and remains clear despite high bulb temperatures. It makes any spotlight a decent hunting light. After 25 years, I'm still excited about it.
Good hunting. LB

Dykem never held up for me, it would peel off ???
it would work the first night but it would start to peel after it was in and out of my truck a couple times, anything that would hit the lens world knock it off
what's the trick to keeping it on LB

George! What are you talking about? That stuff will remain on and never peel off. In fact, it is almost impossible to remove, unless you use the special Dykem solvent. Either your application was incompetent, or you were not using Dykem. It's bulletproof! Sorry, I don't believe it. I'm totally serious. I need some specifics.
Good hunting. LB

The stuff is as tough as a boot. Get it on your hands and see. I have a few pieces of metal laying around with it on them that could 20 years old.

the only way i found to get it off is paint remover or dykem remover. or take your knife out and scrape it off. if you had grease or something on the lense it will not take as well.
ps don't mind me george I am a kid that is new at this and has no clue remember.

that's what I used red Dykem,,
could it have been to cold?
I put it on a lens up in Maine indoors used it 2 night when it start flaking off .
do you think the heat of the light then the sudden cold could do it?
candle power was I think 250,000
weather was in the low teens
you could peal it right of the lens with your finger tip, and yes it was red Dykem

Well, it is possible, if the bulb itself was below zero, that you applied it to a frosted, or on a very cold lens? I don't know, but if it flaked off, that falls under the catagory of (ahem) bad application.
Do yourself a favor and spray in on at room temperature: IT WILL NOT COME OFF ! I promise!
Good hunting. LB

I will vouch for its durability as well. I have it on a LF and a q beam. It is there from now on. Like Leonard, I am shocked to read that someone has had that problem. In fact, I posted a question to Leonard some time back asking how to remove it. He pointed out to me that they actually se ll dykem remover. Maybe it was the cold, but there was definitely something wrong with your application process.
