I've caught just about everything else, especially reds, in exposed cat sets but just got my first coyote in one. It didn't seem to be shy about it at all. I'm not really sure how it got so far into a Bridger 3 exposed or not. The spring pin is between it's toes! I guess with the trap on the surface it'll go as high as possible but a cat and fox had already been caught in it and they weren't like that. You can see the "spot" in the background. Not exactly the type of set you'd think a coyote would commit to but I do use Weiser lures.

This was the remake after the cat. The fox and coyote liked it too.

This one was also in a exposed set. I have caught one other that was exposed also and it was a high catch, now it an thinking there is some thing to the high catches being exposed sets.

Lot of coyotes, lots of competition for food, forces a coyote to do things not normal.
But I think we catch alot coyotes in k9sets after they expose the trap particularly.imo
