NRA4LIFE NRA4LIFE enthusiast Registered: Wed Jun 03 2009 Posts: 603 Loc: Pennsylvania	What type and size trap works best for coyotes? Also what bait and set layout? 1 1/2" or 1 3/4" double coil spring? Also what is a good setup for both coyote & fox? _________________________ "Neither shall you allege the example of the many as an excuse for doing wrong."

I use dirt holes and post sets for coyotes. As far as bait there is many bait and lures out there that will bring in the coyotes and fox. Carmens, Mark june, O'Gormans have some good ones. Most of the places I trap have coyotes and fox so I just set up for yotes, anything that will hold a yote will hold a fox. _________________________ Is it October yet???

There are way too many baits and lures to use. I like a llot of stuff from Eplers. But also Milligans Steppenwolfe II, Or you could be adventurous and make your own bait by mix bacon grease with Beaver castor oil or ground Beaver castor sacks _________________________ A government that doesn't trust it's law abidding citizens to bear arms is unworthy of trust itself.
