What's a good bait/lure making book?


Trapping is easy you say? You try getting your target animal to step in a 3 inch area of its whole territory.

There now (not 1960) many good books. I like Nick Wyshinski, Formulating and Compounding Animal Lures and Bait. Also the Archives on this site. Good luck and enjoy the fun.

Here's the same for Russ Carman.

There are also a few good DVDs on the subject. Check the trapping supply web sites.

The lure and bait making archives are full of information. There is a wealth of information there. More than you can find in 100 books you could buy..
Lots and lots of very good lure makers have dished out Information on this site and you'll find the bulk of it in the archives..
Asa Lenon, Paul Dobbins, Bob Jameson and John Graham.. plus many others, all have given info you will find in the archives.

The nearly dozen books I have all have some value in shortening the learning curve.
