Try some Poplar oil as the food for northern beaver. The Gum tree is more eaten by southern beaver. Then add some castor and something for a base. Put a little preservative in it. Just my $.02. Or buy some Bob Wilsons Beaver food lure. The beaver will like it. The F & T trading post sells it. http://www.fntpost.com/Good luck.

I think one of the bosses beaver lures is a food-based lure. I'm sure that there are several others out there too. I realize you want to make your own, but there is no better way to learn about the ingredients then by buying several that already have their own recipe figured out. Not to be a smart-aleck, but it might make the learning curve less steep. Just a thought.

I know, I already use the best. But that doesn't tell me what the base is. I don't specifically want to know what is in Woodchipper or the others. That is there secret. I just want some options, to try and tinker with my own stuff. thanks WTA

Glycerin oil makes a pretty good base for oils to be blended with.

I make and use a "home brew" beaver food lure. All ingredients are beaver food related. Really good results year round. Here's my base ingredient. Don't ask 'cause I aint gonna give out anymore info! This blind hog stumbled across this blend and I am still keeping it to myself. LOL

LOL skinner it is obvious what that came out of. The thing about that is its free and easily obtainable in bulk... Butch- tell me what it is and what if anything it came out of , then where can I get it in bulk. Because if you really know what it is, it doesn't come easy! Definitely not in bulk. Have at it...

Looks like it was taken a little further down the line like from the colon but then it would have had to have eaten a weird diet like granola or trail mix or pie filling.Pretty mysterious stuff.
