I always just call them in, but a friend uses leftover meat stores throw out, foodlion, walmart, ingles, etc, he says he has had good results. but asking for the left over meats at a store might be kind of weird lol

Well, if you can start feeding them & get them to set up a pattern you may produce a couple here and there. There will be a LOT of nights sitting & watching the bait pile. Or get a few game cams to tell from where & at what time they are coming to the pile.
If it were me, I would register at a predator hunting forum to learn all I can & start calling them in to me. You can get some calls from $9 to $15 each. A good decoy will run about $45. Or you can use a feather & thread. Some good camo & some knowledge & you would be stacken up the fur!
I would suggest Bucking the Odds. They have a great forum kind of like TFL here. There are lots of great folks as well with a few pro-staffers that love to get you hooked on thier sport. There are free hunting videos, hunting tips and articles.
If you stop by say hi, I go by the same name over there!
Best of luck with what ever you decide to do.

People bow fish and spear for carp around here, they are an invasive species and they can harvest as much as they want. Generally if I want bait, I just post to a local outdoors form, someone will have a couple hundred pounds of carp they dont know what to do with, and they make excellent bait. I once saw someone drop off 3 level pickup boxes of carp to a farmer to put in his field, unfortunatly I didnt have the time to make a couple stands the following week.

i second 603, here in texas a deer carcass or pig will be nothing but bones scattered in a hundred yard area. Maybe find a slaughter house and see if they will give you the guts from their pigs and cows.
