A small piece of moosehide with a bit of lure in a cubby(suspended like a castor in a hayball) will take lynx. Some guys that don't trap beaver(some FN trappers)and just trap marten use a piece of moosehide for bait for marten.It works fine early season for marten but no good when the weather gets real cold.

Marten pay more.Moose is better eating.Years of poor beaver management have left a lot of the lines up there scarce of beaver(and other fur) now.

Mostly beaver for me, though if I have duck parts, I use them. I don't hunt waterfowl, so have to scrounge that. Salmon heads work, also.
Made it almost 3 years without censor!
