Trapping is like a box of chocolates you never know what you're gonna get

How much glycerin per bait mix? What about sodium benzoate in the mix? How long will bait last stored?

I have found that 4oz of glycerine to 1 can of jack is right for me. Makes a nice paste type bait if you mix and mush up the jack.

Have NEVER been able to find it in ANY store here. Believe me... I've looked.

I can buy the same size can as shown above of the Wal Mart brand of salmon for under $2.00 per can. The salmon however has a MUCH more mild smell than say, a can of sardines in oil. Now those (sardines) I buy for $1 per can. They're Chicken of the Sea brand.

It works well on grey fox here but using fish bait or sardines we have to get all of the oppossums and coons before we start gettin the fox lol. Thats the main reason I stick to gland lures and other baits. sardines are killer on the greys.

Big catches of fox are not made with jack mackeral.....but good catches of 'possums are.Most fox trappers rely on a good fox lure and most don't use bait at all....

Maybe Tracy Truman will see this... I think it was in his video he said that he catches around 80% of his fox on a homemade jack mack bait and he seems to do quite well on the greys...

I have Tracy Truman's DVD (excellent DVD) and he used jack mackerel bait and done very well with it on the greys he also used a smoked salmon bait mix and put the greys in the fur shed.

Hopefully Mr. Truman will add his 2 cents to this post.
