Unfortunately I am no longer near wolves so never got to try it out , although I have no doubt it would work for coyotes .
One set I do use and quite successful at is , i place a beaver carcass in a plastic 5 gal [pail and let that ferment then find a real thick shrubbery covered ridge and open the vent , then let them find it and set a few snares , works all winter and birds cant abuse it .
First year I tried for wolves I caught 12 and I mainly used beavers in a bucket all summer and coyote carcasses. I would feed the birds with the carcasses and when the wolves came in with the beaver stench they would do laps around till I would hang the whole family
