RE: What kind of bait set works best?
I've read that the best bait to attract coyotes is something large and native to the area, such as road killed deer. If you're trapping, you'll still need to be careful with you scent on the traps though.
If you're looking to use bait to attract coyotes for shooting, then the bait still needs to be largeand consistant because if it's small the coyotes will find it and eat it probably when you're not there to snipe them. BUT if you have a consistant bait at the same sight and can keep it fresh, then chances are the coyotes could be there at any time of day, once they locate it and learn that it is consistant, given you a much better chance of being there at the same time that coyotes are there.
