How often do you catch coyote on a remake after a bobcat.
Just thinking I never have caught coons and possums.

Just keep on trappin' and you'll end up catching virtually kind every fur bearer in every kind of remake.

Although I have trapped on and off for most of my life, it wasn't until the last few years that I ever tried for cats or coyotes, so I am by no means an expert on those critters. But I did collect a nice bob in a regular dirt hole 2 years ago, reset it and then caught a coyote there the next morning. I think it only makes sense that there would be so much residual smell in the area.

Caught a cat and remade the set in the same bed and the next morning had a coon. I catch a coyote and there won’t be any sign or a track within 200 yards in any direction.

My cat sets mostly target cats so are not so good for coyotes, but if I get a cat in a yote set I would have no hesitation to remake. Never had much luck catching anything but possum on a remake of a set that a possum got in, or skunk on a remake of a set a skunk got in. If I catch a skunk the trap is done for the season. If a trap catches a possum it gets cleaned and rewaxed and put back in service. Sometimes I can't get a yote in a set until a coon had been caught there first, so it always gets remade.

Cat smell is good, probably just a coincidence you haven't caught a coyote in a cat remake, I've caught a good number of coyote in cat sets using cat lures. I use cat urine on some of my coyote sets
A lot of those caught in cat sets were big male coyote

I do not know about dirt hole remakes but about a week ago I caught a 26 lb. female coyote in a trail set with a snare.
I remade the area and reset a snare back in the same place and three days later caught a 18 lb. male cat.

The only re-make I won't make within the same catch circle is after catching a badger. I have never caught anything after a badger anywhere in the catch circle, not even footprints to check out the scene. Can anyone else confirm this or have a different opinion? I love remaking after a coyote catch, I can be almost guaranteed to catch another one in that spot.

Agreed, that cat of ours had really "polluted" the catch circle and the smell was palpable.

Well duh! smile No one can remake a set at a badger catch...unless you bring in a backhoe to re-level the ground that is. smile Just joshing, I have only ever caught one badger in a trap and that booger dug EVERYTHING up except the stake. Stupid badger! smile I did snare one another time and he must not have had enough time to really get the claws going before he got choked out...but man, those things can dig!

I caught a little grinner, 4-5 days later a bobcat (male), couple days after that a red fox and after a couple more days a grey fox. Might change the trap out because the pan tension is getting pretty low. Been trying to catch yotes but just can't seem to do that.

I get a lot of catches at remakes. Love remakes. Had one coyote set produce three this year and another produce two. I get coyotes after catching about anything else first but especially another coyote. Mange doesn't seem to matter either.
Badger remakes are the best. Huge eye and scent appeal. A dirthole remake in that mess with some bait is a sure coyote for me later.
Remakes for me just get better and better.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
