The guy I bought a bunch of traps from who used to trap bobcats in Wyoming used Tom Krause's 40 Below and I've heard a lot of good things about it from other guy's on here as well. I don't have any experience, just relaying info.

Mac Hankins in Idaho makes some castor lures I know. I've sold him castor a time or two.

Domestic ducks are great bait for bobcats too.

Half a castor turned inside out and wrapped in a hayball suspended in a walkthry or tee-pee cubby is hard to beat for cats-both a visual and scent attractor that lasts all season.

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

There are products out there that work better but pure castor causes cats to rub so it makes my post sets very effective. Unless you are in deep snow and a deep freeze think of luring a cat instead of baiting one.
