Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Trapping Bait for trapping racoon

I use a 220 Conibear in a 5 gallon bucket set with dry dog food as bait. (I tried Live traps and the coons destroyed 2 different makes!)
Works like a champ. Dead coon almost every morning in the fall. It's nothing for me to get a couple 35-40 pounders every year.
This is next to my house in the far suburbs of Chicago!
