I have better luck with fish as coon bait than canine bait.When I have used it for canines,,I had better luck with fresh,,or preserved fresh fish over tainted.The fox and coyotes seemed to want to roll over the tainted fish set rather than work it.

Straight out of the can it is a good coon and bobcat bait. It catches coyotes too. Not many mackerel here in KS so I am only familiar with the canned fish at dollar store.
