So I was thinking of something in bulk and cheap, like Sweet Feed and Corn with a bit of fish oil sprinkled on them?

Cheap dog food mixed with fish flavored cat food is my cheap Coon bait. I use homemade sun rendered fish oil by the set, but not within trap circle.

I like to use the burnt breading sludge from the bottom of my VFW Post's fish fryers. Nice and stanky and the price is right.

Sour mash....5 gallon bucket half full of deer corn, some cheap pancake syrup from the dollar store, fill it up with warm water and cover, but not tightly. It'll ferment in a few days and raccoons love it. A half a cup or so of the fermented corn in a bucket set or in a DP. I thought about that but a mix of Sweet feed and Corn soak it and then add molasses that I can get a 3.5lb pail for 20 dollars and add some after.

I remember using just sweet feed and some supplements for old horses that had very few teeth and making a mash about of it. Kinda the same idea but geared for Raccoon

NW Oregon, timber country. Are we talking 220's in buckets ? Where will these be placed ? Always be aware of your non target possibility. In the forest on private property with no houses near by.
