In discussing what works and giving advice,lets touch on a few things.There are Coyotes are found from Costa Rica to northern Alaska, and from coast to
coast in the United States and Canada. Now that being said,it was established that a coyote,irregardless where he is from even if he has never seen sheep or lambs is destined to give chase to them .Why because if they run,that elicite's the urge to chase and capture it.
There are certain things a coyote love to eat period,it makes no difference if he is from Illinois or Texas.For instance,coyote love Lambs and sheep from Alberta ,Canada to Mexico,my point is merely that you can count on it to be fact! Coyotes also love rabbit irregardless where they are from,same with foxes ,they also love insects if they are from Mexico or Canada.
Also my point being,if your using bait made from a ray of different things they love to eat,you will have some success,if your set is right!
Lets study why a certain Lure or bait might not work in your area.Lets say my coyotes here love a certain lure and I send you some and your response is,"Well they don't like it in my state,,,Now wait,,My first question is to you. IS YOUR SET located to where the coyote EVEN SMELLS the scent? In other words here we generally have a South West Wind most of the time,except for fall & winter,then its out of the North.But if I have a South West wind and I make a coyote set on the EAST side of the FARM LANE or road thru ranch,then I get NO VISITS and they WON"T WORK the set,WHY? because any animal is generally 95% of the time going to work set from the down-wind side with the aroma of scent IN HIS nostrils.
If your catches are slow CHECK your SET regarding wind currents.That set has got to be made where the lure,bait,or urine crosses his line of travel to pick up the aroma ,otherwise he doesn't even know your set is there.
Now lets just say well,what If I use an "EYE" attractor,yeah he will investigate your set,but if you have a South West Wind and your set on the North side of travel way,HE WILL go to the downwind side of the set to work it,MISSING your trap!!
Granted,I understand Wind currents change and they change a lot,but general wind in each area of the United States is generally out of the same directions MOST of the time,Our general winds here are a pre-valing South West wind which warms us up ever day,,then it might change during the day.
If your having problems with something not WORKING for you and it does in most other AREAS,,Find out the true reason,watch and understand those tracks of the animal you are pursuing and read the story he tells you in his track patterns?
If I bought lures and products from say Forest and they worked all over the rest of the United States and he has testimonials saying so,then I need to look closer at why it might not be working for me right? I mean after all doesn't it make sense that if he is going to stay in business,he has to make a product that MOST people are going to GET RESULTS FROM,,but if your not having luck with it,YOU CAN bet if you discuss it with him,I BET you my farm that he can help you figure out why!!
I learn something everyday on here,this is a fine group,I hadn't seen anyone in here that's not helpful.And I have been in forums that I wouldn't dare go back into because there seems to be a trouble makers in there,BUT NOT HERE!!! Larry Gene
