Looks like a good channel, maybe lay a dead stick across the top on the side you expect them to come from to get them to dive under into the trap. The stick you have there will probably work but I usually lay something out front. Doesn't have to be very big either. You will still catch then that way I think. Good luck!

I have struggled with that in the past but have done some tinkering and adjustments. Seem to have improved that struggle.
