I know everything Mr. Conner does is Top Shelf; but wondered if anyone has first-hand experience with his lures...

Thanks!

Not yet but I'm getting ready to order 500 of his rod swivels so I'm going to get 2 oz jars of every kind he has so I can let you no after the upcoming trapping season, but I'm sure they are quality. Would like to hear from someone that has.

I'm not getting any of the bobcat lure because we don't have a season here.

Been using for at least 20 years....I like a change up. Like everything else JC takes pride in his lures. You’ll like his Early season, Big Three and his LDC. I like those plus gland lures...red fox top notch.

"Big 3" I have used as a change up for a long time. Works, but not a 1st string lure for me.

JC has been around for a long time and knows what he is doing. Lots of field experience and he takes great pride in what he uses and puts out for the public to use and buy.

I know he uses good ingredients and doesn't cut corners. That my friends is very important in producing a good product.

You won't ever be disappointed in anything you buy or use from JC Conner. He is a good friend and one of the greats in our industry. Mary Ann and his kids are the salt of the earth that is a fact.

Never met the man but I'd say "Amen" to everything Bob said (and Newt said). I've used a ton of his products and never had any experience other than extremely positive. And I see some of his catch pictures obviously taken with his lures so I'd say you could use them with confidence.

Agreed. Realize I never used his other gland lures and should change that.

I never had a mentor when I started trapping. I ordered his videos and they've helped me more than anything else. I'd love to meet him and spend a couple days on the line with him.

appreciate all the replies.

picked up some tracker drags and a jar of his Bobcat Call lure.

I've used his drags before and they work great (work of art!)

looking forward to trying his lure!

Everything JC makes has been tested on his own lines, its all top notch. I met him years ago and he was very helpful with trap mods. even before they got popular. A true thinker, very innovative mind. Mary is very knowledgeable also.
