I know the final test will be with traps out front but I can make mock sets faster and cover more ground this way and the sign is still there for me to read this way. JMO, bait&lure have 2 functions. Getting the animal there and having that animal "work the set/hole". The rest of the responsibility falls on the trapper who is making the set. The trapper who fails to connect whether it be steel or a cage needs to address those issues for success, not the bait & lure.

get you a "pet" coyote. dig a blind pup out of a den. When you put it in a collection pen it wont be scared. big plus. you cant trust it. wont be a good pet in spite of what you may have read. you can pet them, watch them work mock sets, watch them mousing. lots of plusses. you will need an outdoor kennel for your "pet". anything that will get that coyote to lick rub and then pee will catch you a lot of fur. and not just coyote fur either.

yes for awhile. eventually 1 1/2, 2 years old it will not let you cage it if allowed to run loose. IMO if you get a blind pup you need to keep it till it dies or kill it when it gets to be to big a problem. It will be 100% on you that the animal isn't fit to be a pet or a wild animal. If you get one you will definitely learn a lot.

explain how THEY test their bait recipes. I'd like to know too. I'm hoping this is good, because I'm always up to learning new magic tricks. Maybe, just maybe my son won't have to cover so much ground anymore. Lots of time in the field with final product and single ingredients teach very well, along with studying the animals you're trying to attract. Warm glove wear and a comfortable pair of go faster's and you're in business. Lets see those magic methods! All holes are punched with threaded rod or rebar no more than 3/4 of an inch. If the ground is soft the opening of the hole is bored out just a tad. Frozen solid Frozen solid. Frozen solid damaged threaded rod punching this through. They want it, they'll git it. Two holes side by side with same bait.
