I have, with good results. Fur from around anus, anal glands, paws, lure made from paw pads, paw pads cut off and thrown in hole. I have used quite a bit from some of those old books. One of my favorite flat sets is a 3"-4" diameter branch or tree, 8' in length with a #4 dbl longspring chained to it. The tree is the backing and the drag, I lure a distinct portion, often a knob or knot of the branch and bed the trap in front of it. It's quick, easy, I find it on location and they don't go very far chained to it. Works great in winter with frozen ground.

So how did u do using parts off coyotes?

Caught around 7 coyotes with meat of Hams. Also caught 5 with Fresh - caught the day before anal glands. To be fair. All set were deep dirt holes. 4 inch auger bit on BT -45 . Got a BIG 2 gallon Ziplock bag of bout 60 coyote anal glands in deep frezze

Did u try using the feet?

No this trip. Forgot my hack saw. For some reason, I forgot lots of stuff last trip. Hacksaw, 24 inch bolt cutter,grinder, and back up Dewalts drill with auger. Will cut off some feet and throw down deep dirt hole on next trip. May even try to stick feet up in air = and use in some type of Flat Set . Need to find = or figure out way to wire or stake down feet

Thanks for sharing your results!

Feet work very well, all by themselves no lure or urine added...

So which do you find works best? Feet down a deep hole? Feet at a Flat Set? I have 30 days to experiment with this. Will give Feet a try~

Flat set, fastened with bamboo scewers used for shish cabobs. cross beged.. From the pad up sticking out. They'll try and take it, good luck.

My thought was = tent stake,wire the paw to it OR shortened wooden tomato stake = wired. I going to try it any way. Have bamboo on my property could use it for a stake. I have used bamboo as a lure holder in the past Work well

Iv'e use berks with cable also. as long as they have to work to take it. Same theory as the M44s.

I use them at flat sets. Just pay sticking up. I just pound ground tight around them to hold in place. No anchors have worked pretty well for me.

This! Don't let them take it, as it won't work as well the next time! I use WF, but use any anchor that they cant get away with. Hard to miss them, as they will have tracks all over trying to take it with them. I use grub stakes that I make up from a wooden peg and burlap too.

Do you anchor your grub stakes down also?

No Seth, I just put enough length on the peg to make sure it stays put. Usually make about three different lengths. Like the wood, (oak) because it swells up a bit in the ground. To pull them, I grab the wood shank under the burlap with pliers, and stick my driver under the pliers and pull up. The coyote ain't got the right tools to take it with him!

Run them through the grinder! Especially a lactating female!!
