I've never used the step down method, how far down below the original grade is the trap?

The dirt hole step down set the trap i will set four to five inches deep. And the baited hole will be 2 to 3 inches lower than the trap. Thanks guys i really hope it helps explain them better.

What do you use for the "bag of rocks" for the castor mound set? a burlap bag? can you still buy those?

I can get all the 5 gallon buckets I want for free. If I put the rocks in the bucket and fill it with water would that work?

The sand bags that most farm and homes sell work great for this purpose a bucket of rocks will most likely be turned over and not work but you can try it.
