Coon takes the big marshmallow off the top of a DP trap, then reaches in and examines the little marshmallows without getting caught. It did that to 2 DP's that night. It didn't like cat kibble. Try fish food tonight.

They have so much to eat this time of the year, I have the same problem during the hot months.

A 1 1/2 bedded next to that DP would get him.

Switch to Jack Mackerel. Never had a coon not like that stuff.


Got a photo from a speeding camera in the mail. I immediately sent it back - way too expensive and really poor quality.

Put the marshmallows in a zip lock bag and add a pack of strawberry jello. 2-3 tablespoons of vanilla extract. Shake it and let it set over night. Use that . Almost bet he eats them !!!! you switch to fish flavor you get possums and aunt ethel's cat .....

DO NOT put one on top Just put a single big marshmallow on the trigger.


caught coon
