Default RE: Coon's how to trap em

It may be hard to compete with the corn. A friend of mine used honey buns to catch a few coons. You could use half of one and eat/keep the other half for later. I have used some of the commercial lures with good sucess and it won't take much a little dab will do ya! You could use #2 and use dirthole sets, but run the risk of catching most anything in the traps; releasing something from a box trap is much easier. Finally, it would be a wise idea to wash your traps after each time you catch a coon. If you could stop the feeders for awhile and bait the traps with corn you would really load up on the coons.
