Damn, I'm impressed. I do pretty good with legholds, but over the years have done poorly when going after coons with live traps. It gets frustratingwhen i have a live trap set all season and don't catch anything but possums then my cousin (who is not a trapper) uses the same trap to catch a dozen coons in his sweet corn patch.
try sardines, coons will eat anything. coons and possums will eat similar foods so you might catch both of them. i've caught wild cats (house cats) with sardines.
