It worked good for me, but it's been quite a few years since I used it.

I know we all use "castor" lure of some type. But, I have an 81 year old trapper friend here that has been catching beaver at "castor" mound sets for 60+ years using nothing but cheap brand vanilla extract.
Imagine that.

I have caught them when they were checking out the small dirt mound I made digging a hole for a coon set. No lure at all. Well unless they wanted the fish in the hole.

Couple brothers up in Wis that I know for sure catch 400-500 a season with just mineral oil and ground castor mixed in a jug.. Thats it,with a hodge=podge of whatever trap brand including #4 coils, MB750's, bridger #5's and 330's... They just work hard and put traps on sign..
but to answer the question it is a good lure..

Your referring to missouri gold made by doren Miller. I used it to catch 125 beaver this season. It's all I used and it went on 95 percent of the sets.
