Scott Welch makes some and I believe Wolfen bait/lure maker Jim Tate makes one also

Carp oil seems to work great in my area
You may think before you act. The question is did you listen to your own council?

Coyotes love fish. Been using carp chunks and fish oil for years on our line. It's a great change up from other meat based baits. Carol blacks fish bait is good. I've caught a lot of coon on Katz brothers black label coon bait which is fish or shellfish based, too. Tim Caven has a good coon bait that is fished based and works well on predators in general. So does Carmen's. See the theme? Look for a good fished based coon or mink bait and then use that on your dryland predator line instead. Give it a try. A shot of good sharp smelling shellfish or fish oil in a dirthole also works on coyote or fox for me. Salmon oil is nice change up too. I salt my own carp chunks and that works well. Coon and coyote alike. Jim

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

It just can't be that simple.lol You have to experiment and add something to it. Best thing to add to any bait is location. It can be very simple, there was a man over the hill from me that caught a lot of fox in blind sets with uncovered traps, coons too. But what's the fun in simple, eh?

It just can't be that simple.lol You have to experiment and add something to it. I thought that was the only way to have a "proven" scent? Even then it could be a "not so great scent" < no idea what that is supposed to mean considering there are folks who hammer critters on certain bait and others not so much. I like simplicity. it takes many critters for me.
