Nothing works faster than fish in my experience. Fish flavored wet cat food, jack mac, sardines, etc. all work well. Some guys have problems catching cats when they use fish but I haven't had that issue.

Cheese is another good bait. The smellier the better. Cheese-Its, cheese flavored popcorn, Cheetos, etc. all work good.

Bananas work as does bacon. Even vegetables like broccoli work.

Fried chicken wing bones work great for me, always keep some in the freezer just for bait. Tried some with skin & meat still on , did't seem to work as good. Going to check some tube traps this morning.

Stuffed oatmeal cookies.


I think, what we're learning, is anything you have in the cab of your truck will catch a skunk. Who the heck carries broccoli in their truck?! Lol.

Sharp cheddar cheese is my go to bait. Cut in cubes. One at entrance, one at back of cage.
