Man, pick one thing from the seemingly jillions that draw coon? I'd say a ping pong ball size glob of canned cat food does as good a job as any bait or any lure I've ever used.

I've NEVER caught anything on hardcore. It just won;t work in my area.

I like The Bomb and Lenon's racoon all call. As a bonus...both will take bobcat.

Yes...location is key...but some lures just won't produce as well.

Example....Over a year in testing..... If you put in 2 identical sets set within 2 feet of another and one lure/bait never catches and others do.....that's more than just location...IMO. You are obviously on location...but the coons are showing a preference for one bait or lure over another.

I can honestly say I have had good results with Blackies Boars Delight... Its a gland based lure... I double up when makeing sets and lure one with fish oil and other with Boars Delight....
