They are not predictable enough to sit and watch bait.

This very scenario is why I purchased a rifle suppressor.

Agree but have had luck putting it where I could see from the deer stand then killing them at it while hunting. I would not hunt a gutpile to hunt yotes normally but if already out hunting why not.

Where I have had the most luck killing them is around dead livestock or hogs. Takes them longer to clean that up than a gutpile and return trips seem more frequent.

This technique works best in the dead of winter. If you want to sit and watch bait.

After you kill a deer, take the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys and put them in a five gallon bucket. Add some blood and and some water then stick the bucket in the deep freeze until frozen solid. Once frozen, go back to the location you killed the deer, the blood on the ground will have them working the area. Dump the contents of the bucket out and watch it.. The frozen block will last longer and they can't drag it off. So if you have a few days you can leave it there and come back to it all you want, night time temps will freeze it back up for the next days hunt. If you don't want to leave it there you can put it back in the bucket and take somewhere else or store it in the freezer.

Good luck. But like others have said, traps and snares work while your not there. And this could even be used for gang sets as a bait station.
