    Anyone ever tried the old coon catching trick where you

    drill a hole in a log, put a shiny piece of tin foil in it, and drive three nails in at an angle to catch the coon's paw when he reaches for it?

    I use the modern version - Dukes Coon Traps.

        used to crush foil on a 1.5 trap pan in running water with a drag. It worked very good.

                    There's no need for that anymore. Did you just read the book or something?

                              Yes I used that method 30+ years ago. Dukes coon traps for me the last 6 years
