What's the best coon attractant?

What seems to be the best feeder or attractant for coon? Trying to set up a few woods for pups and the coon aren't moving so seeing what anyone uses for feeders

I've been using corn for years. Great way to start pups. Get a tire still on the wheel. Lay it flat and drill 4 two inch holes in the sidewall. Fill it with corn and water. If the tire is wet when you get there, the coon was just there. Your pup should have a good track to run.

Canned fish & sardines works good too! The smell Carrie’s to them from a long way off.

I do the same, but mix in a tub of the pre sweetened kool aid mix, I use this for my pups to get good hot tracks, I’ve got a cell cam on it and know when they been there, the critters seem to love it

used that many times.. the corn never last long enough to get sour.
like shad said you can see the fresh water on the tire and know you have a good trail.By the way Grape and Cherry kool aid seem to work the best

Go to the doughnut shop and get their old doughnuts! Coons can’t resist them.

It's better to go with something your pup won't prefer to running the coon. LOL

Corn and tires works great but if you add sugar and a couple of packs of fast acting yeast you can’t keep them off of it. And a drunk coon doesn’t run very far
