I make a K9 lure with a Plum base. Wild plums can be found afield here in MN. I dehydrate them and then reconstitute with glycerin. I believe a lot of the fruit paste base available is probably fig .

Strawberry jam is a proven canine delight. Skunks like it to!

Strawberry Jam is of great interest to Marten & Fisher as well.

Every coyote and fox in my area is going to go out of their way to get apples, grapes, persimmons, and mulberries. and I have even seen what I believe, that they eat black gum berries in the fall. Every grey fox will go to blueberries. Our coyotes gorge on Mulberry when they are hitting the ground too but I can say that Mulberries don't have the attraction to make a good bait or base. I've tried them many many ways. Just because coyotes eat it doesn't mean it has a high level of attraction. Would "it work " to catch some? Yes but I've driven nails in with a rock too and it works but there's more efficient ways to do it

You would be amazed at the animals I use to catch under Papaw trees growing up. Grey fox's loved them like nothing else

Thanks Bob. I'm wondering about using finely chopped figs mixed with glycerol to make a base. Then add a good amount of castor, fish oil, a little peppermint oil, a little loganberry oil or another fruit oil and maybe a little honey oil to make a marten lure. What do you think about this recipe?
