I had a couple gallons of frozen black raspberries in the freezer. So after reading the bait formula in a recent trapping magazine I thought I would try it out. I ran the berries through a food processor and then put them in quart jars and mixed in a 1/2 cup of sugar, then set them in the basement with the lid on loose. My question is when the bait is done fermenting/aging what all should I add to this bait?

Waffles, pancakes, or my personal favorite, vanilla ice cream!

If it wasn't such a long drive, I would already be on my way to your place to knock the snot out of you for wasting raspberries on dumpster pandas!
I'm getting old, and I can only really wield a wiffleball bat, so it would take me a while to get-r-done, but come on man!

My fur buyer told me to mix raspberry jello with raisins. Worked. No possums.

Them berries had been in the freezer for several years they were left overs gma was supposed to make jelly out of but didn’t get to them. Wife and kids tried to eat some they said too mushy! Plus we have more berries around home than I could possibly pick! Thought I’d put them to use instead of trashing them!

I made some dp bait from the pulp left from concord grapes and black raspberries after they went through a jucer, sun-dried that then mixed it with fermented field corn, fish meal pellets, and a dash of shellfish oil. It worked good
