Great video Jake. I am going to try a couple hay sets after the extended deer season is over. Thanks for sharing.

[@Keystonetrapper]

@WilliamAyers-sp4tt That's great buddy!! I want to hear how you make out. Best of luck buddy and like always appreciate you watching

[@MarkJLarsonOutdoors]

Great job! Thank you for sharing the hay set! I'm going to try again when we get some snow! Good luck with everything my friend!

[@Keystonetrapper]

@MarkJLarsonOutdoors Thanks Mark. Mark another good Hayset is to shape your hay like a hour glass. Make your focus the skinny part of the hour glass. Trap both sides of skinny part. If there hitting bait out there, bait would be my choice. I plan on doing a example of this set in a week or so.

[@BLUEGRASSTRAPPER]

Heck yeah man. Tight chains ⛓️

[@Keystonetrapper]

@BLUEGRASSTRAPPER Thanks Brother!! Happy Nee Year!!

[@pamq-pestanimalmanagementq9690]

very enjoyable. thanks

[@Keystonetrapper]

@@pamq-pestanimalmanagementq9690 I really appreciate you watching

[@lew6643]

Great video ! With the crazy north west pa weather right now i will have to give this a shot . Curious as to how many sets you get from a bale of hay ?

[@Keystonetrapper]

@lew6643 First I wish you the best of luck!! With this really cold weather were about to get these hay sets should be on fire!! As far as how many sets with a bale?? I am not sure?? Maybe 20?? Please let me know how you make out. Tight chains brother!!

[@ctfan1486]

Im going to try this set. I finally got some traps out ,14, and had 6 dug out over 3 nights. Stil. Trying to figure this out

[@Keystonetrapper]

@ctfan1486 Make sure the dirt around your trap is very firm. If coons feel anything loose they will dig. If it's K9 digging your traps up it's usually a grey fox, again he felt loose soil. Or your traps are contaminated. That's alot of traps dug up.

[@ctfan1486]

Being new to this they probably are not set tight enough. What do you mean by contaminated? They are died but not waxed.

[@Keystonetrapper]

@ctfan1486 How did you dye your traps?

[@ctfan1486]

@@Keystonetrapper boiled in Log wood dye

[@Keystonetrapper]

@ctfan1486 👍 thats good. Probably sets not solid in bed then. Let me know how, you make out. If you have questions please reach out.

[@brianmuska6471]

Great job thanks for going over the hay set. I have a question about the hay set I know you put a trap on each corner but are they on the front corner or opposing corners in other words one on front corner and one on back corner or both on same side? Thank you!

[@Keystonetrapper]

@brianmuska6471 Brian, they would be on opposing corners. That's how I try to make them. Appreciate you watching brother!

[@brianmuska6471]

@ thank you for explaining just trying to learn as much as I can. I am setting a line on Wednesday and plan on giving the hay set a try.

[@Keystonetrapper]

@brianmuska6471 Well I am going to be your biggest fan!! I really hope you connect!! If you have questions please just ask. Tight chains brother!! I hope to hear you caught some critters!

[@brianmuska6471]

@ I will keep you posted but I have not connected with a coyote yet this year. Did ok catching 5 otter and 5 beaver but no coyotes

[@Keystonetrapper]

@brianmuska6471 This time of the year, there really starting to ramp up on breeding season. Think gland, urine and scat when making some sets.

[@DawsonFleisher]

What county do you trap? If you don’t mind me asking

[@Keystonetrapper]

@DawsonFleisher Dawson, i really appreciate you watching and all your support but I would rather not say. I work really hard gaining permissions all summer and don't want to loose them. I all ready have competition and I don't want any more if you know what I mean. I hope you don't take it the wrong way. Thanks again for watching.

[@coyotestalker1580]

I gotta try this set. Straw work just as well? If not, what should be done differently ?

[@Keystonetrapper]

@coyotestalker1580 Yes, straw should work the same. Just remember to cut it up over your pan nice and fine. Appreciate your support and watching

[@alanbostdorf7122]

Enjoying your channel! What WMU are you in? Blessings!

[@Keystonetrapper]

@alanbostdorf7122 i really appreciate you watching, and don't take it the wrong way but I would rather not give away locations. I work really hard to get em. Again I do appreciate your support. Thanks

[@alanbostdorf7122]

I completely understand. I was just wondering due to the amount of fur-bearers still in your area this late in the trapping season. May you and your family have a blessed 2025!

[@brentrowan2794]

Nice set. Your traps 6 feet or so apart? I will be trying that tomorrow. Also what is your bait bag in the video? Thanks

[@Keystonetrapper]

@brentrowan2794 You can make your loaf of hay as long as you would like. The longer you made it the less likely of it getting wrapped up in the second trap. My bait bag is a tool bag that I bought at lowes. I really appreciate you watching and I hope you have success with it!

[@justinchappell7397]

This goes against all I have ever been taught about making sure your trap is better secure and does not move. I need to try this out

[@Keystonetrapper]

@justinchappell7397 The hardest thing I have ever done. Trust me on this, I have not dug any hole and just layed trap flat on the ground and caught 4 fox and 2 coyotes 3 winters ago. Just flat on the ground and covered in hay. That was a baited hayset shaped in a V with 2 traps in the V. I know that method works and I like you still at least feel the need to dig a hole, even though that really isn't necessary. Give it a try, if you have fox in your area they seem to hit it more than anything. Tight chains brother! Let me know how you make out.
