I am wondering what is best bait to use for coon in these Traps? I have read Marshmellows? Like to get coons,,not skunks...
 
Marshmallows work fine. Can put other scents on them also. Have yet to catch a skunk in a DP. One feral cat & a couple mice, but no skunks... yet.
 
I buy the Tuna in the pack and put a small chunk in there. Seems work great.. They only like Charlie the Tuna brand :) One pack goes along way.
 
Great thread. If you had asked about 220s instead of DPs I'd say smoked ham works the best of all the bait I have tried in a bucket set. Perhaps this correlates to DP traps.
 
When I trapped a lot in high school I used the mini marshmallows in the bottom, and then I would put a mixture of dog food and peanut butter around it.
