Blind sets

Blind set is used as a last resort to catch a specific coyote that is difficult to trap. Place the set in an area where tracks show the coyote has been stepping. A good example would be a place where the coyote jumps over a fence into a field.
Blind set is concealed and covered the same way as flat sets. Place the trap in the exact spot the coyote hits the ground when it jumps over the fence or when it leaves the ground to jump.
Hide the blind set carefully, and place small sticks on either side of the trap to direct the coyote into it. Bare ground in an otherwise grassy area provides the coyote an inviting spot to place a foot.
Blind set at these locations are usually selective. No bait or lure is used to attract nontarget animals, and the coyote is usually the only animal jumping over the fence at these places. Blind set can be used on trails and at crawl-under locations at fences.


Blind set is used to trap hard-to- catch coyotes. The trap is placed in the exact spot the coyote touches the ground when it jumps over a fence or at the spot it stands when starting to jump. The carefully placed sticks direct the coyote to step in the trap. When scouting for a location, look for coyote tracks in areas where the fence sags.
