Once possum are gone, cages win for coon though marshmallows are rather poor baits in my experience for nuisance coon. http://www.sniperstrappingplace.com/tmansearch.php

Is this a commercial for your new cat food lure? Tile coon or woods coon? The mind boggles Last edited by tomahawker; 06/04/19 09:26 AM. www.tomahawkoutdoors.com

I can't believe I forgot to do that, I'm to old to be young and to young for a senior moment. I had coons in both cages and one in a DP. So for now I guess it's a tie.
