Like most of you I'll be targeting mink and hope the prices hold. I'm confident in trapping mink but I have never used a mink lure at a set most of my sets have been blind sets bottom edge and a few baited pockets thrown in. Thanks for your comments.

Muskrat musk at a baited mink set for me.

Thanks for your opinion

I smear Weasel lure for mink above my traps on concrete culverts.

Turtle, when you say weasel lure do you mean a lure made to attract weasels....or weasel musk itself? (Or both).

I never used mink lure, just bait. I guess It wouldn't hurt in a pocket or cubby if I didn't have bait. The mink would probably be at the trap by the time it did any good anyhow (not sure how well they can pick up scent), Never tried it at blind sets either so don't know if it would do any harm-- it may disrupt his gait and miss the trap entirely.

Lenons weasel all call
If I had enough weasel glands I would love to try just a paste of those ground.

I've caught 2 mink on a muskrat lure that had muskrat glands as well as other ingredients in it.

I don't use a lot of it, but a good lure can't hurt anything. I think using lure gives some guys extra confidence in their sets, and that's a good enough reason to use it.

I invented an absolutely deadly mink lure about 5 or 6 years ago.
Two common ingredients and a base with one secret ingredient.
I dont want to divulge the secret ingredient because someone will steal it and make a bunch of money off it.

Great for coon in your mink sets. I blind set most of the time.

I know nothing about mink but I sent a coyote lure to a guy that had a decent mink population. He but the lure out in front of a camera to test it on coyotes. It wasn't on a prime mink location but got video of several different mink working the set. He said I should market as a mink lure too.

a skinned half a muskrat is a good mink and muskrat attractor before freeze up
Grouse scraps are an excellent mink bait before deep freeze.And unlimited supply in the fall.

Excellent bait for sure.
