Add some poly-fil around the set, a flag above the set, and a skunky call lure up high.

Again, location is the most important aspect of any set. If the animals do not travel close enough to notice the set, it won't matter how well the set is constructed.

Dec 15, 2022 · A second or even third set will increase your catches. I like to use one highly visual and one suttle like a step down and a urine post or blind set like jabNE suggests.
