So far I had good luck with bushwacker and coyote pee sprayed in the bushes around the dirt hole.

I like to try something different every season and have found no favorite. One lure and bait works one year and might not the next. When I started trapping many years ago I would use bait that I could find living on the farm and maybe buy a bottle of Hawbakers lure. It seemed to work and have thought maybe going back to keeping it simple.

Carman's Triple Threat and Caven's Canine Force are two good ones for dirt holes.

Don't want to ruin your thread but does bobcat urine work for coyotes? Only stuff I got for urine.

Coyote pee and beaver.


The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.

Just a hobby guy here but Powder River, Widowmaker, Hiawatha for baits work good for me, and pros choice, moonshot, and plenty coyotes have been good lures. I really like Jc Conner’s lures a lot too, early season and big 3 have proven themselves time and again.

You guys do know Weiser is out of business you can’t get his stuff anymore. Wayne Dericks scalp HunterI or any of his stuff is tops.

Yes, bobcat urine will work just fine for coyotes.

Hiawatha and Powder River have really done well for me. Only lures I really like in the fall are skunky call lures. I don’t use them on every set just as a change up on a few sets. I alternate between coyote and Red fox urine. On most sets now I just use s bait and a good urine.

Keg creeks showtime, grahams cat creek, or MN Hiawatha Valley all work well for me. Bruce rhoades had a good bait too.
Some fox or cat pee at post sets.
For lure I use mink gland or beaver caster. Both work well on coyotes here for me. I don’t use much lure these days most a smear on a post set.


Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
