1) What kind of trap? (I'm assuming foothold or snare because coyotes don't like cage traps all that much)
2) I know you're a beginner, so what are you going to do when you catch something that's not a coyote? You may catch a cat, a domestic dog, a fox, a bobcat, or numerous other species, so you at least need a catch pole so you can release non-target species.
3) I do not recommend you begin trapping coyotes without a mentor. Traps do not discriminate. The first time you catch somebody's dog or cat in a trap, and they find out about it, I will guarantee you will have a bad day. An experienced trapper will help save you from experiencing those headaches and will guide you to become a more successful trapper.
