Default RE: Racoons

ORIGINAL: mjreck21

I would like to try and harvest some racoons to see the grouse numbers go up. Anyone have any advice on how to hunt them? I have some coyote calls and I have called them in before with a wounded rabbit sound but looking for a different approach. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

We have been plaqued with racoons getting in to our bird feeders, tried everything including wiring up 120 volts. Zapped one but I think he was
the one that returned and figured out how to get around it.Tried a big box trap, he wouldn't go in. Finally took plywood and inserted short nails through it every square inch. That kept him but it was a pain settting it up every night. Last ditch effort I took two packs of rat poison and mixed it up on a paper plate and slid it under the porch. I haven't seen him since.
