No, I assume he's referring to Ron Hansons Coon Bait. Made famous by Red O'Hearn.

Nope, same coons as those up there as down here. Real stupid and easy, & can catch them on about anything.
But since most locations have more than 1 trapper there. And say he's using a piece of fish, corn, cat food, etc. I want the bait that gives off the best appeal to the coon that he's going to check out MY set before the others. A sweet, "loud" screams to the coon, "come here", get caught here so I can take you home and not the other 2 or 3 guys under the bridge.
I think a guy that goes by "Braveheart" on the Coyotes R Us forum is going to be there selling some of Ron's baits. Double Strength. Don't quote me on that though.

According to a VERY big numbers coon guy. The prepared baits if made correctly will out produce chunked fish on coons anyday of the week. And NO he doesn't sell bait.
I agree. However Hanson's recipe, though very good, is not the best out there. I like a sticky bait like it but I like a louder smell as well. IMO his recipe needs a few things added. Red's recipe needs even more stuff added IMO. They will both catch coons though...
Another thing, if you follow Hanson's recipe, it'll cost you quite a bit money wise. There are cheaper things that work as well to get the desired end result. Again, just my opinion.

have any of you actually checked out Mike's(thats red for those of you who don't know him) bait? It is a great bait and will work in almost any coon trapping situation. Why not just buy a gallon of his bait and use it? I mean if you catch 2 or 3 coon it has paid for itself. If you need I will pm you his contact info so you can buy it. I've used it. It does catch coons, but there are other baits that are better in MY opinion. I know there are some people who would not buy bait from him for other reasons as well, that I will NOT get into. ~ADC~

What I'm saying is by the time you spend $50 on the formula and then buy the supplies to make the bait, and they are not cheap, you've got a lot of $$ wrapped up in it.There are a lot of recipes out there that work as well without such a large investment. SA I understand that you are a fan of Hansens and Reds baits, good for you, they work good, all I'm saying is a guy can pile up a heck of a lot of coon without dropping a $100 on a recipe and the supplies to make it. There are NO secret baits that out preform others that much to justify spending that much on a formula! Troy

$50 ain't nothing for a bait or lure formula. Trouble with trappers are they are cheap skates. Some people just like to collect formulas. I have Hansen's formula, I got it from braveheart. Their is no comparison to the bait he makes and the one Red peddles at conventions. I also got a history lesson about how it came to be the bait it is and in the process I made a new friend that knows his stuff on lure and bait making along with trapping. $50 was cheap to me. As far as making it cheaply. You can crank out a gallon of the super strength stuff for about $25 a gallon. When I tested it I took 300 coon off two gallons of it. A teaspoon of bravehearts mix will out call a cup of Reds commercial mix. Just my .02

Good lord willing and the creeks don't rise.
