As in the name of lures and traps etc. Ya know marketing. Paul’s Backbreaker thread got me thinking about it (Backbreaker is a ridiculously great name for a trapping product). Love it or hate Locklear’s Alcatraz was clever. Whatcha got?

Steppenwolfe. First commercial lure I got my hands on.

Dunlaps hellfire is pretty good name for its loud odor.

Were a lot of good lure names over the years...
Hens revenge
Steppenwolfe
Widowmaker
All call
Magna gland
Woodchipper


Some good trap names too
Coon cuffs
Lambsavers

Montgomery's Digger trap was a pretty good name, even though I don't think it was ever very popular. But who wouldn't want a trap to catch those pesky diggers?

Didn't Newt have a product called Hot (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)? LOL.

Economical, effective.... but not without modifications

I love telling people two items I use and they look at me like I am crazy.

Lee's, - Death Ray

Kendall's - NO-BS Extreme

Two weeks ago in bear camp I had them going that I had a death ray for dispatch. LOL so gullible.

I think it was Asa who once said a lot of lures are better at catching a trapper than an animal (or something to that effect). It was a discussion like this on names or labels or something.

Makes a lot of sense. That said, I'm a sucker for a cool name or a well written lure description that promises secret rare exotic ingredients or being the best _____ lure on the market that 1,000's of govt trappers swear by.

Stop loss

Yup, the descriptions are what get me. I always seem to that lure will be the magic one

The "Walloper" by Diamond Brand is an outrageous name for a very unique, over-engineered, crazy looking trap.

Lure, "Backbreaker". It's name grabs your imagination and works extremely well, me and this lure go way... back now also!

Bounty Hunter
Voodoo

Bobcat Lure Hot Pu--y

Ranchers friend, Boss Dog

And isn't there a digging tool called ground hawg

Booty Call.

I've been starting to develop a bait called "Hoser"
I know, i know, it's pretty early for me to start making baits but it's fun.

No it's not. Never to early to start making baits. Too early to sell them maybe. But look at the Kaatz brothers. I think they were in their very young teens when they started their lure business and look at them now.

#1 original Newhouse
#2 original Blake & Lamb

I make Payback baits, its the ingredients, things typically eaten by the predators, that are getting Payback when they catch the critters. My buddy named my Cherry Bend-Over bait, not sure what he had in mind but I say its cherry/fish based and you gotta bend over to put in it the DPs or pockets.

I always liked the names sweetwater flattail, boar's delight, Huson Seal and of course Backbreaker as mentioned.
