The Meatsicle.... from another site...

I have discovered a method of hunting predators that started with some sportsmen in the state of Maine over the past week . Here in New England it is legal to bait predators in most states including the one I am in. One method that has been very successful is called the meatsicle. Basically you collect meat scraps in a 5 gallon white food bucket, fill it with water and freeze it. You then place it in your hunting location and spread birdseed to attract crows which will attract other predators to your site. You set up a couple of treestands with the wind in favor of your direction and wait for the coyotes and other predators to show up.

Today I cleaned out my freezers of things I will not eat. I still collect deer hearts and livers along with other things and so I put them in a bucket wearing rubber gloves along with turkey skins and a freezer burned trout. I have it hanging under the deck as we're about to get a cold snap. Hopefully I will be able to set it up at my spot Monday or Tuesday. To work best you should let it sit for a week or so before you begin to hunt off of it.

I'll let everyone know how well it works.

I know some will state," Why don't you just call them in? " For some reason calling is a very poor way to hunt coyotes in New England. I suspect that they are so used to human contact that any odd sound like a call makes them more suspicious rather that curious.
