Not for years, but I've seen enough posts on here about it over the years to know it's good stuff.

Hands down it is the most consistent bait I’ve ever used. Trust me I used a pile of them! Don’t use a bunch at the set they will roll.
God Bless

One of if not the best bait I use. Like it has already been said, if I trap, I have some in the truck. I only use a couple of baits and this one is top notch.

Absolutely spot on. Don't get it on the lip of the hole or they will roll on it. Get it down and they will dig and dig till they get to it or get caught. I have more dirt holes dug into with this bait then most of the others I have used. I always use a good backing cause I have had them dig into the hole from the back side several times.

From my testing, if your go to bait doesn't get a rolling response I'd be looking for another bait. Seems to me most of top shelf ingredients (the ones that get the most positive reactions) for coyotes will get a rolling response.

Ever put Carmen's canine call on the ground and see what happens? It is rated as one of the best lures of all time in bite tests, but they will roll on it all day when it's on the ground.

I love his horse meat bait. The coyotes, bobcats, and grey fox around here all live it I’m kind of like someone who replied above on this post. I bought some at a convention because Cletis seemed like a nice guy. I keep buying it because it works

I sure like the sound of the horse meat bait.
Posted By: Yes sir

Re: Cletis Richards - Apple Road Brand - 09/22/19 02:04 PM

In my area with nothing added to it horse meat will usually get more reaction in test sets than most other meat bases.

Good stuff,i don't think you'll be disappointed to give both of them a try.

Man do the dogs love that horse meat and their hoofs too. I can never decide if they like the hoof or the meat better! grin

Lotta critters on my line have been pinched because of it. It's the best commercial bait I've used hands down.

Love the horse meat and cat glands, have had success with the cat meat base as well. And Clete is a great guy to boot!

Are you guys using the Apple Road horse meat or bobcat meat bait?
Posted By: QuietButDeadly

Re: Cletis Richards - Apple Road Brand - 09/25/19 12:21 PM

Yes! Mostly bobcat based here.

Re: Cletis Richards - Apple Road Brand - 09/26/19 12:34 PM

Bobcat base.

Re: Cletis Richards - Apple Road Brand - 09/27/19 03:07 PM

Horse Meat

Re: Cletis Richards - Apple Road Brand - 09/27/19 06:22 PM

Never tried Mr Richard's stuff but I've done a fair amount of testing bobcat and horse side by side. Both just the meats and also in formulations using the exact ingredients. The coyotes here always show more intrest in the horse. By themselves horse will usually get dug at and bobcat wont get more than a sniff. I will say if aged, bobcat will have more reach than aged horse though. Just my experience.

I tend to try a new bait every year. In my opinion most of the commercial baits work just fine. I ran the horse meat with extra glands with good results. I wouldn’t hesitate to run it again. Put about any of them on coyote tracks you’ll catch coyotes.
