Well If your going to make a tire set just anchor to the tire and use that as a drag.

I was fearful that would be too easy to pull, I guess I could use a large truck tire

I would assume he can drive down the pipe line so It shouldn't be a problem hauling what ever he needs.
The tire can act as a drag and also a vocal point for what ever he's trapping.

Make your own concrete drags from 1 gallon milk containers. Buy some Redimix Sakreet or such at the local lumber yard and mix with water, cut top off milk jug, add some old chain , wire, nails etc. to minimize crack separation and don't worry about a block splitting.......................... my take.......... the mike

I started using concrete blocks with 8 feet of chain this year actually because I hate driving stakes and main rationale was if I hooked up with a lion I didn’t want to spend half a day trying to find it. Haven’t hooked a lion yet this year but when I have with regular drags they can haul a trap a long ways before they get tangled enough to pull out and then you are just looking for a trap somewhere, real pain in the butt to find. I just use a carabiner to connect the chain through one of the holes in the cinder block. The added weight would be an issue if you were setting a lot of traps but I just run a few sets on private land all season for something to keep me entertained and I plan on leaving the blocks out there from year to year. The coyotes don’t go more than 30 feet. I’ve been worried about the blocks crumbling apart and maybe i’ll have to replace them every few years but they are newer and still pretty solid. The old tire idea mentioned above seems better. I think either a block or a tire would add a curiosity draw for most critters.
