Coyote trap question #3661293 04/29/22 06:13 PM 04/29/22 06:13 PM

I made a dirt hole set about 20 yards from our gut pile hole. The hole has some pig and Coon carcasses in it. I put a camera on this set. I had one coyote come up behind the set and check it out. But about 5-6 others have walked 10’ from it and never paid it any attention. Any tips or suggestions? There is a bush and a little hill of pushed up dirt that I used as the backing for the set.

Could someone post a picture of the trap they are using and maybe tell me where they bought it? Just Google MB 550 and it will come up. You will need a lot more than just a trap though. Do a search on YouTube for “management advantage”. They have a few good videos explaining how to set and what you need.
