Urine and gland lure. Find where the coyotes are entering the field, and make post sets. Bed your traps solid, pack inside the jaws as best you can, and use plenty of pan tension. The coons will be just attracted to your sets as the coyotes. Your only hope is they check the set and leave instead of digging at your trap. Drags are good in this situation also to preserve the location. This is a good time to hunt at night if allowed.

Do not use drags in the field You could have big piles of vines Cantalope rubbed on a set post then put urine on top of it has worked for me

There is no fence for 1/4 mile, 360 degrees, and then its a 2 strand efence. There is one end of the field where I see the majority of tracks, and have it set heavy. The farmer started irrigating today, which will add to the challenge, but also may help with finding muddy tracks and entry/exit point. I picked up two coons last night. I already have a dozen dogproofs out and are saving a few for his sweetcorn, and my own cantalopes. One of my dogproofs was cleaned out two nights in a row without tripping. The ground is so hard that when digging the first two inches shatters like frozen ground, and it doesnt improve much after that. Ticks,,,,,,,,unreal!!!!!
