The best thing i have ever used for trapping a coon is corn that has set in water for about a week. You will have ever coon in he country trying to get to it.

Menhaden oil is used to make fishing chum and it has a powerful fish scent. It works well for coon and otter. One applications sometimes good for a week or so no matter how many coons you catch.

Iv trapped alot of coons i use to use sardines dog food tuna an stuff but u will also catch opossums and other varmints. The only thing anyone around where i live is honey buns or something sweet honey buns are the best thing
