I have cut the hair off of a deer hide with sheep shears and put the hair in a pillow case. Then put the
pillow case in a tub with my hunting clothes for a cover scent.
Smells like a deer, not deer pee or deer poop, just a deer. Maybe something like that with poly fill, to absorb the odor???? Then use the poly fill at the set??

Processed and prepared materials can make trapping much easier due to their strength, variety and odor appeal. Once you learn to get in front of them the rest is routine for the most part. Same old same old just at different places. The magic is in the understanding of what you are doing and how you do it where it will be most productive.

Learn your basic set construction and a couple for change ups as needed. This trapping is an on going work in progress but it gets much easier with time spent in the field.


Very well put

I have cut the big pad off and soaked them in everclear liquor for a couple years per Mike Marysada (sp) sorry . Column in the trappers post. Had pretty good results towards the end of the season.

Foot pads or back feet are best used in the spring to kill its mate .
Rest of the year imo it is a curiousity .

I use to make a training scent for coon hunters, rabbit hounds and a deer dog breaking scent to break dogs that ran deer. They was made by first soaking hides of either the coon,rabbit or deer in a preservative, glycerin oil, foot pads or hoof and urine of that animal then added other parts of the animal. worked very good. I still have a hounds men asking me to make them for him. So I would guess the same could work if a fox or coyote was used. Again to go back to Bobs last post, a lot of things will work if you can let them see it and put it right where it is going to be, rather than trying to pull them to where the trapper wants them.

Anyone use a yote foot to make prints in the dirt or snow around and over a set ? Would a footprint right over the pan make a coyote more apt to put his foot there ? Would a set of prints put them more at ease or more on alert ? -Thanks

just leave a low spot on the pan

Do most folks really believe that an animal will consciously look for other animal tracks ? Just asking

Not sure, but I did see rubber paws on a stick in the trap supply catalog for that purpose.

coyote cant tell a coyote track from the marks left after a squirrel digs up a nut without his nose. they are animals. no cognitive thinking, not human.

Imo coyotes learn from repetitive interaction and association. If a coyote has been around for a few years than yes I think he could possibly see and smell enough marks in the dirt, (tracks) that they can associate it with one of their own. I would say most don't know this but maybe some do.

Smell and disturbance, I say yes for an attention source, but personally a track used over the pan or at set as a confidence / social / guide I would say no. I can be wrong though..

A coyote that's been around a few years I think can tell what food is, (rabbit) from just visual alone without smelling it because they learned what they are. If a coyote sees you even without smelling or hearing you they know just by sight you are danger. I bet they know what a turd is on the trail there trotting down even if they can't smell it from where they're standing. So why couldn't a coyote know what a track was at a set or anywhere without smelling it if they've learned over the years what it is through association?

I think the track maker they sell is mostly a gimmick but leaving a track on your pan could potentially help.

I can't see how it would deter a coyote from a set.

Just ran across this post. Will coyote feet work at sets? I've had good luck with a deep dirt hole (2" auger), push in a foot with about 4-6" of leg attached so that the foot is about 4-6" below the hole lip. A little gland lure on the foot. If I've missed them, they always work to get the foot out of the hole.
