Has anyone used Lucero's lures in the cold and wet of the north? I've noticed that some lures work better in some climates than others, but have never tried Lucero's lures.
Cannot say that I used them lately. Back when Mr. Lucero came out with the books and lures, I used his lures and baits quite a bit. I really liked them a lot for a few years.
Had good luck on coyotes with them. When he stopped advertising for some reason I guessed he was retired.
I liked the articles that had been written about him. Sounded like a down to earth guy. Loved his coyote book.
Maine has about as crappy of weather to trap in as one can imagine. It is really a crap show most of the season. Most years, too much rain, too hot too late or too cold to early, freezing rain, sleet, snow etc., thaw/freeze, thaw/ freeze, then just rock hard freeze. It is awesome.
I have a picture of a rather large Bobcat caught with his bait and lures. I am no great photographer but the picture came out good. It was late season, about 6 to 8 inches of snow on the ground, and snowing when I snapped the picture. The picture came out pretty cool.
The set had been made for coyotes and was a very well blended baited flat set. Nothing visual. The set proper was about 20 yards from the wood line which is where the cats typically pass.
