Take 5 quarts and to each one add:
2 tea spoons of non iodine salt
1 tea spoon of honey
1-oz fox urine
water to fill leaving head space and then process "can" the meat in the quart jars
The rest I would divide into two gallons adding a cup of sodium benzoate and a bait soak solution to one and freezing the other to use fresh and natural later on.

and I use aquarium airstones for 1 way venting.,,cept now I put it down in the recess so I can stack several buckets to save space

those are screw on/off lids from Lowes, making life much easier for my arthritic hands.

Smear, juicy pasty baits that soak into the hole get canines active and digging. Good for the folks who arent "professionals" and may need them canines to move around a little more at the set. Jmo

You still have time to taint some bait, then add some Dobbin's Bait Solution, and fix it...before the season. But, better get started next week.

1) Grind up some meat.
2) Taint it for 3 weeks.
3) Add bait solution, and let it gas off for 3 weeks.
4) Bottle it up.
5) Throw it in a hole, and sharpen the skinning knife. laugh

Ya i just bought 4 lids at Menards for 20 bucks that screw on and off. The stone is something i have so ill give that a try. I figure i would have to taint the meat for a couple weeks before i added my sodium benzoate to it. Any chance you know how much per pound of meat?

If i dont have to im not going to buy anything more for it than what i have. Any suggestions on lure i could add to it? I have over 60 different lures to use?. from food based to all call.
I know i am going to take at least one jar and add skunk pee to it that i collected this spring. but just s drop or so.

Depends whose bait solution you use. Dobbins is loaded with SB and comes with a lil extra baggie of it.
Blackies and Jamesons and others use 1 cup/gal meat.

You must ask the maker of the solution to know. All those guys are great and answer phones and emails quickly.

I have many many game cam pics this summer of coyotes going crazy for every cheap canned and dry dog food I placed. I put it in big dirtholes little dirtholes deep holes and shallow, buried it they dug it up. Moved a hundred yards and they found it within 2 days. Same results in different sections. I do like something potent when very cold, have you smelled some cans of cheap dogfood?

If you are referring to all the baits that are talked about on this forum, then you are correct. People complicate bait because X Y and Z said they "found" the next best thing since sliced bread for an ingredient. They may not "love" it but they don't have to "love" it for a bait to get their attention. They do a solid job at digging out holes when testing, does that mean they love it? I'm no Dr. Dolittle so I assume they "like" it. Some people posses those powers on here, I'm sure they can tell you what is really on a canines mind. For me simplicity is key to attract canines. People who need to come up with these elaborate ingredient lists should prolly reevaluate trap placement. Because it is not hard to attract canines or any other critter to an area/hole that is baited, if you have them to begin with. More times than not, it's trapper error. jmo

LOL, one of your competitors likes to gather the masses into thinking there is some secret hocus pocus in their stuff that is by far better than anyone else.LOL I have tried the name brand solutions and baits and all that jazz,caught coyotes but not like what I make personally. Lack of or skimping on ingredients my guess.

Who knows, but my little guys make bait and get consistent dig outs from "desired" animals, and do it without magic "aging" boxes, buried baits, heat lamps or other contraptions. Bucket, lid and a storage place is all that is used, and of course the "magic" base with $100 an ounce ingredients because without those, the base is just a base.... smile


Kids put this post in and smeared bait on the post. Pretty easy thing to do..agreed? Seems like if the trap doesn't connect then it must be the bait... That is why I believe if more emphasis was put on trap placement and stacking the chips against the target, the bait & lure aspect wouldn't be so complicated because it doesn't take much at all to get them there. jmo




This is how I find out what they like. Punch hundreds of holes year round, because IMO that is how you find a solid consistent bait.

Yes sir, I believe so! Going off the Acronym "KISS" that is used so often on this forum why wouldn't it be? Let me ask you ??? What is the main function of bait at a set? I know some think there are many but ultimately what is the objective? If I didn't know better I would assume it would be used to draw that animal in and have it commit to an area where you had placed a trap...No? Then lemme ask you thiz...if a bait with three ingredients in it can get virtually the same response from your "desired target" what is the difference? Not sold by a big commercial dealer? Not being used by X amount of people? At the end of the day realistically all you're looking to do is get that animal curious to what is in the area or down the hole. You don't need elaborate ingredient lists to attract animals. JMO
