I will say that quite a few came out of New York and Pennsylvania. Ohio hasn't done too bad either.

Does anyone have Don Hunter from OH on their list. I bought fox lure from him years and years ago and that stuff was extremely effective down a hole.

How many are we up to now? I thought about before but there are a TON of lure makers!
Troy

Burbank lure. I think he was the first to sell lure.

Brian Roberts, "b's" baits.

makes some good cat meat based bait as well as some lure.

There have been hundreds come and gone since I was a kid. Just can't recall all of the names right now. There was Gene something the Old Bounty Trapper, The Minnesota State Predator controller, one of the founders of the PA TA, etc, etc. One of these days I'll dig out some old FFG mags from the 40's and refresh my memory. Either that or Jack Turner can give us those 175 names, LOL. Oh 'ya, Donald Niemic Lures, Manistee, MI! I give Jack a bottle or two of Niemic lures to go with his collection. Oh 'ya, forgot good 'ol Roy "Finn" Syrjamaki who sold lures for years. Ace

#19 Fur Taker Lures is by Joe Fennel, Chicora Pa (Good Stuff)

Thanks for the replys guys! I saw some names I have known and forgotten, Niemic, Bierman, Wieland.

Mr. Turner, how many of those lure makers do you have a bottle of?

Tim Rose from Indiana- Brum canine lures.

K-zoo,

Somewhere around 100 different. Finances have limited my collection from being larger. Haven't purchased any or been able to pay for shipping costs for about a year. There have been 5 or 6 that frequent this site that have been very generous and donated to my collection to which I am forever grateful. I'll probably never sell the collection, but down the road pass it on to a well-known trusted trapper or donate it to a trapping museum.

Asa-

Hey pal, are ya trying to give me carpel tunnel syndrome? To type that many out would kill me. LOL

I will say that all you folks are doing one heckuva job. If someone would write these all down you'd be getting in the ballpark. One of the biggest issues is when someone starts a lure business and then it's sold 2-3 times.

I will say that I have been able to add two or three luremakers to my list. Thanks. Good post.

Yes folks, Asa was one that has helped me out as well as Paul Dobbins and Nancy (WissMiss). I have appreciated all the input (info) as well as donations.
