OK it has taken me a while to do this, mainly because the mice etc have been cleaning out the tubes of the bait. I have had cleaned out tubes with no coon on the video for days. I have several to download so bear with me as it takes a bit. Peanut butter is on right, marshmellows on left. As you can see the first coon just goes through with no response to them. It should be noted that NO coons have come through this spot since my last videos. This one that did failed to stall out and work the tubes. Yesterday I added Coydog's super duper Cherrybomb lure to a third tube in the center. On the addition of that, numbers of coon after days of no activity in this area are working the area for food. They do not dig overly hard at the third tube, but my oh my look how they work the general area over better than any other wideo I have put up. Coydogs lure is a very intense loud cherry smell that permeates an area. I think I am learning that you can stall coons out and start thier front paws to working with a good lure, but as Rick Kaspar has told me you gotta give em something to eat too. Here is first one, will take a bit for me to put the others on.

It was like once they got close, they couldn't help but get in the water and start feeling around. Looks like that particular coon flipped it out of the tube to see if some real food was underneath it! lol

Ive taken a few coon over the years and ive never felt marshmellows were very good bait.

Awsome post K-9. When I video the buckets, I find that with just bait, and no fish oil, I get limited visits. Add the fish oil or even "fox gland lure" I get multiple visits a night.
Would love to give that cherry stuff a try.

thanks for posting.. to be honest given where I "would" have placed traps on those pipes, I think i would have missed about half of them given they stood further back when they stuck their hands in the pipe. I did notice that they went for the pipe on the left more than the right. So marshmellows over PB.. hm.... I've tried Marshmellows in the past with zero success on them. wonder if I was using them too late in the season?
