Just by how it it works. I would think curiosity or gland
You may think before you act. The question is did you listen to your own council?

The way I use it is I put food (bait) in the pipe & then I put gland on the backside of the pipe. Works pretty good for me.
Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere. Or so I've been told.

There are bunches of pipe dream sets on you tube. There is a lot more to it than just a pipe. Mark makes a lure called pipe dope and I doubt there is a better lure made for use with his set. I haven't tried any gland lures , I try to build the set just like Mark shows it. It is a killer set and having it in my arsenal was worth every penny I spent to gain the knowledge. Coyote U teaches fur put up and just the skinning tips alone is worth the price of admission.

Made two pipe dream sets last year to test them. Used gland lure but had no luck. Switched to food or curiosity lure, can't remember which, and had success. Want to use this set a bit more this coming season and from the comments it seems a bait is what to use. Thanks for the replies.

Bait is what I use mostly. Late season during the cold and snow I will take a q tip with a smear of (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) fire or fatal breath bend it over double and hang it off the lip of the pipe I make mine just like Zags my trap pan is about 8 inchs straight back no offset. My only real difference is type of trap I'm running #2 bridger dogless and #2 modified duke round jaw with black nylon window screen. One thing I learned with the window screen I was originally putting it on top of the pan and cut to where it fit inside the jaws with the sprinkle of grass clippings on top. The coons would mess with it and pull the screen off. I now cut a notch in the screen put it under the pan then grass clipping over the top. After doing this I started picking up the coon that messed with them. One more tip that I do if you have the perfect spot but no weed clump for the pipe to be in. I will drive my pipe in the ground then I take my stake drive and make 3 or 4 hole about a inch away from the base of the pipe. Go get some tall weeds double them over and stuff down your stake hole. It kinda like doing a flower arrangement but it works out really well. Also Mark has detailed instructions on how he makes his pipe set on his web page. I believe there are to write ups on it Justin

More for the grass settings. Ill just make a little mound of bean and corn stubble for the pipe if my set is in the field. But usuall im on the edge in the grass or in the tractor path to the field

If ya want em to pee on it use gland, if ya want em to try and eat it use food/curiosity that tastes good, to them anyway. The way Zag beds the trap works very well in grass with root systems. The pipe provides not only a weather resistant lure vestibule but an awesome focal point that has the smell above ground up in the air currents. Win, win.. And ya can take it a way when you pull.. Heres another trick, if you see where a coyote is leery of the pipe, take it away and just leave the hole and see what happens.
Common sense catches alot of fur.. Pay homage to all you harvest..
