When I buy new traps I do nothing but boil them a couple minutes to get the oil off! IMO, the most important thing is proper bedding technique! Get this right and most things will fall into place once you learn where to set traps. Yotes do not willy nilly around! They love to travel road beds, fence lines, places where two types of cover meet, just about all the areas that deer also like! I have this one spot where ther is a mound of dirt. Ive caught 5 yotes off this spot, same trap!
Look for sign, tracks, scat, and the such. I employ a lot of flat sets and dirt hole sets! Once it starts getting hot I do not use bait, ants get it too quick. I use mainly urine and gland type lures when it gets hot!
Just a couple of pics!
Good Luck!!
