Nope not even a track. This bad snow/blow we had all night holed everything up tight. Thought I would have at least one but can't catch them if they don't move.

So k9, a coon won't drag a cinderblock off to space? Is it good enough?

If they do drag it the yare not going very far with a block. Try tying one to your foot, and go in the shallow water, and sand. My bets you would'nt make it very far . The only problem I have ever had with a cinder block is once with a thin rusty peice crap wire I used to tie the trap to it, coon broke it off, nobodys fault except for my own

No they can't drag it and I use snare cable to attach them so wire breakage is not a concern.

That pic of the cinder blocked coons is great.Can't wait to use that one when our season kicks off.
On a side note,you think shad catfish bait would work for coon or do ya think it'd be to loud?I've used catfish blood bait before for 'yotes and it was deadly.

So what do y'all use for bait? Also any one have any information on cat sets and coyotes? What are the best lures for coyotes and cats?

Any fish will do, loud might gain you some possums but I'd rather have a good stout fish smell than only a mild odor. Just stopped in to eat lunch and headed back out the door.

On the debate over the color of buckets used, aren't coon like most animals color blind, only see in grey scale?

They are just jacking around. The blue bucket joke has been ongoing since Paul was a pup.
