Ya you’ll be fine freezing it, mine was froze for about 3 weeks before using it on the line. Good luck and keep us posted, thanks!

Most of the liver I use has been frozen almost a year and works fine.

Yes!

Thanks guys..

BadDog, how much liver have you been using at each set? Are you using lure or urine as well?

I cut mine into 2" cubes and use one per set. A little blood poured around the rim of the hole doesn't hurt any either.

Most of the dirt hole had a fresh chunk of 2”x2” liver. Once I started catching I might take some of the scat from that catch and put it at a dirt hole on another property with a shot of coyote urine. I haven’t caught anything for a week now and will have to try changing things up by adding a lure or maybe even a different bait. I’ll keep you posted, I’m back to work so checking traps after work hours and that doesn’t give me much time to change things up till the weekend. We just ended our 7 days of firearm season in Illinois so I’m hoping it’s slow due to the extra gut piles and crippled deer.

Bad dog what part of Illinois are you in ? That pic with the corn crib looks like you could be in my back yard.

Bureau county

Lol I guess most of Illinois is built about the same , I bet there is a grain elevator in your home town also .

Finally...this trap has been in the ground since November 14! That makes 15 coyotes and 5 fox

So that’s since Nov 14 and the same cube of liver?

Yes same cube of liver, only thing I have done to this set was about a week ago I drilled the hole out again. I normally check from a distance but pulled up and noticed dirt on top of the bait. Still had my wad of grass covering the hole but assuming mice covered it with dirt. I used the auger and cleaned the hole and the chunk came out so I tossed it back in. No lures and no urine, just been playing with some different things and this is the only one that never got urine, coyote scat or a lure. Never had any sign of activity around the trap or dirt hole, almost wish I had set a trail camera on this set just to see if we had any visitors.

Hey BadDog,
I'm still catching stuff in Henry county, but before I'm done will be out by Yorktown.

caught 4 coyotes (1 single and 1 triple), 1 gray fox, and 1 bobcat on deer liver this week.
