prebaited
Trap set beforehand
Prebaited describes something that has been baited in advance, typically a trap, hook, or fishing area prepared with bait before the intended time of use.
In fishing and hunting contexts, prebaited equipment saves time and increases the likelihood of success by attracting prey before the actual attempt begins.
The prebaited traps were set out the night before.
The term also appears in marketing, where prebaited offers are designed to hook customers before they realize they're being sold to.
