Some fisher men chum for fish . In NV desert I wonder if buying some domestic Rabbit feed will draw Jack Rabbits ?

Might work. Won't hurt to try. Maybe find something that woks good.

I often thought about putting tannerite in old small film cannisters, covering them in peanut butter and setting them next to gopher holes. When the gophers come out and start licking, shoot the cannister. Might give that a try for fun next spring
 
Dunno. Lots of things will bring in raccoons and deer, a pile of corn being the best. Ground hogs come to a corn pile also.

Fish scraps will bring in yotes and coons, and they'll find it quickly.

I think if they like it, it will work, but sometimes it takes them a while to find it and habituate to it. So it might take a number of trips working the bait pile for success rather than blasting them right after you put it out.
 
Last week on the way back from dogging. We were drivingg along a two lane road in WY. I noticed the road was covered in what I thought was saw dust. Then we came up to a trailer hauling corn and the. Driver had stopped to stop the leak. Corn was pouring out the side of the canvas top trailer.. I told my friend "can you imagine the carnage along that stretch of road tomorrow morn?"
Coons, deer, opossum.. all types of critters..
