Default what do you do with coyote meet?

I shot a coyote yesterday on the way hunting wt. Its too damn wasted if I throw it to the garbage. Can I use it as the bait for other predators? Thanks!

When I meet them I ,,,,,,

Okay, I'll be serious,

I haven't used them for bait, mostly because in my experience other predators are not particularly fond of Coyote carcasses.

But perhaps if one were to prepare it as per stinky bait, it might work well enough.

If you aren't familiar with stinky bait, this is the way I prepare it.

I cut the meat into chunks about the size of a crab apple.

I place those chunks in a plastic pail, black seems to work best, but whatever, it must be absolutely clean, no trace of any petroleum product or any chemical smell whatsoever.

Then I stretch a piece of screen over the top and tie it tight around the rim. This is to keep flies out. And for that purpose, one must leave at least four inches of free space between the contents and the screen.

Next I place the lid loosely over the top and place the pail well away from any occupied dwelling and out of reach of any animals.
If the weather is warm it can be placed in a building or similar shelter.

This late in the year I would place it where the sun will shine on it.

In two to three weeks it will be ready for use. At which point I put it in the largest plastic jars I can find. At which point it is ready to use.

To really give it some zip, I add about 1/8 pail of liver cubed and or 1/4 pail of fish cubed. The I add one drop of skunk essence. And let the whole thing fester for a few weeks.

The resulting concoction will draw a Coyote from a mile away, if he gets downwind. In a dirt hole set it will draw them from several hundred yards.

Only one thing. Forget about dating for a few months. Even with rubber gloves and painters coveralls, the stench will linger for a few days and if you get a drop on your skin it will rule out visiting the bar for a couple of days.

Unless you enjoy getting thrown out.

It reminds me of ten dead horse lure.
I just broke the vac seal on a can once in my porch. I couldn't get the stink out for months.

Can't imagine ten dead coyote.

oh, my God. I wouldn't go that far for sure, but I probably just let it go wild and make some distress call at the same time to see what happy.... interesting to find out.

In the bush. Being scavengers, I don't think I could bring myself to eat them and I am of the mindset that you should eat what you kill.... Only reason I go after Coyotes is because they're a nuisance.

On the other hand, I was out chasing after some tonight and called a Mule Buck into 30/40 yards with very little effort.. that was pretty awesome. I've never had one come that close.

Lol no; just a grunt. We spotted him earlier while we were hiking to our 'yote spot. We were walking through about 5ft tall grass/hay and spooked him and he hopped off; just a little 2x2.. we carried on our way and he later came out about 150 yards away from us and kept grazing towards us despite moving and chatting. I imitated a buck's grunt and up came his head and he walked towards us until he was about 30/40 yards away, before deciding we weren't interesting, and left.

My nephew takes the coyotes he shoots to a nearby Hutterrite colony, and they pay him for the animals. Apparently they tan the hides and sell them.

I have always used a similar recipe as the birchwood. I debone the coyote put it in a large roaster with an old cowboy boot season to taste, cook on low heat (300) for 10 hours when done throw out the coyote and eat the boot. Great recipe for sand hill cranes as well.

A story just came to mind.

My grandpa used to tell me he had a neighbor back in the day that someone was stealing meat from his freezer.

The man cut up a coyote, wrapped it nicely, and put it in his freezer.

After a month or so he said he never lost another piece of meat again.....

True old person story.

I wonder if it could be cooked up into some sort of bait cocktail? I know predators don't find the meat attractive on its own, but maybe the stench could be cooked out of it/mixed with something aromatic, anyone try that before?

Default Eating coyotes

True story. My buddy made a stir fry of coyote once, the same day his wife was having a group of gals in for prayer study. He didn't offer them any but soon they were all ,inded up with plates and they ate every last bite. His wife was furious when she found out but it seems to be not as gross as we all think it would be.
