On my way to set some traps today I found a Budweiser can on the trail. Got me wondering if a coyote would check it out or shy away. I made the tranch set in the foreground and stood the can up 10 yards back. Only problem I can see with it is if it's a female or the likes it may prefer Bud light. Hope to update with catch pictures in the next couple days.


Wish I had more time to trap....

If I was to use that can I would stake it down and put a curiosity lure in it. Bet it would work.

I caught a coyote once on a Mc.Donalds bag with a rock inside of it, and some lure on the rock and about a half dozen French fries in the bag. I figured maybe I would catch a coon, but I was really surprised when I walked up on a yote.
The beer cans remind me of the ole JT creek chubs in a can calling stations.
I use some kind of out of the ordinary backing about once a season it seems like. Last year I wanted to put a set in on this road, and you couldn’t dig a dirt hole with a jackhammer not to mention the pond it turns into overnight. I was looking around and saw an old steel cooking pot laying in the weeds. I smeared some lure on the inside lip of the pan and jammed the handle in the ground with the pot upside down so there was a small opening in front of the trap...that set never caught a thing. Lol

What was your reasoning to put the can 30 feet away from the actual set?

I caught 2 fox and a coyote on a busch light can and a squirt of fox urine. Smashed the can and pushed it standing up into the ground. Got a fox on a burger king bag once also. Same as Dfabs, I put a rock in it to keep it from blowing away and put a shot of fox pee on it
