Is anyone using that for bobcat or fisher? I know Clint sells it & so does Dunlap. Dunlap's has an aroma.

I've yet to hear of anybody using glow lure. I guess I'll interpret that to mean it's not worth much

Gimmick.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I've used Dunlap's glow coon and it worked quite well, I can't remember the exact number I caught, but somewhere about 15-20 coons.

Yeah I recently noticed he sells a glow coon lure in addition to his traditional glow call lure.
If I had to do it over again I'd probably just buy a roll of that glow in the dark duct tape-- it can be used for multi-purposes besides just trapping.
I did put a little glow attractant tonight at a bobcat set for the first time ever.

I've used Unfair Advantage at cat sets for 10 years or so. I don't use it every set. Not for any real reason, just some sets get it, some don't.

I use it on flags that I already had some on. If I pick up a Mallard wing to use as a flag, and notice I had some Unfair Advantage on the white side of the wing before I'll add a fresh glob.

I catch Bobcats at sets with and without the glow lure on the flag. What I haven't done is study my set detail notes to track if the glow lure really makes a difference. But I have caught enough cats while using the glow lure to say it doesn't hurt your chances.

Sometimes I feel like even though I can't see it the critters might be able to

Dunlap's Glow lures work very well. I know guys who use them lots in bobcat cages


Save the land, resist against developers!!!
We don't need more houses.
I've lost too much trapping land to new housing developments.
