One set I have caught wolves and coyotes in is I cut up a bunch of my beaver tails and let it sit all summer and collect the oil. I have dug up the ground and mixed in the oil and buried a trap in the area that I dug up with the oil. It seems the coyotes just continue all winter digging it all up looking for something.
Another real good one is muskrat mounds more specifically frozen over push ups. The coyotes come from all over to look at these all over the lakes and ponds. Easy to hide traps but only issue is anchor them. I have had big trees place by them early in the winter as drags and let them sit to let things calm down then set the trap in the muskrat mound and anchored to the tree. I have also used Ice anchors as well but they cost a few bucks. I find the Muskrat mounds work best as they are visually attracted from a long ways off.
While your at it at the ponds and lakes with the Mounds take some rams as there are always some sweet spots for some snares between catails where the coyotes access the lakes. Works awesome especially with a frozen beaver in the ice they can pick away at over a few weeks. The birds alone will bring the coyotes running
