Pretty hard to beat the feeling of confidence that a good bait or lure gives you.

Here are some links to good bait solutions to add to your tainted or untainted meat. I've not tried them all, but have these.

Question? do many of you add skunk to your bait or do use it without. seams like adding skunk late in the season would be a good idea but maybe not really needed earlier in the season when it is still warm.

The formula calls for 20 drops of pure quill per gal of solution. I usally add and stir shortly before using as the skunk blends and disapates over time. This is for late season when its colder.

Remember when adding skunk to any solution or bait, if you store it in plastic the"sulfide" skunk smell will disapear over time, its best to either store it in glass or if you want a skunky bait add it just prior to use....B....

I have used bill nelsons bait formula and the fresh bait didn't work well in our mild weather climate. it had a strong skunk smell to it when it was fresh so I kept it and the next season it was milder and I caught coyote on it after it mellowed out some.

I forgot to add skunk to my last batch. I caught some coyotes but this was a bad year to assess if it hurt me or not, as the weather shut down my best coyote trapping from Thanksgiving on.

I add skunk to mine but it dosnt have a real "skunky" smell. Good quaility fish oil makes a big difference. Shake the solution to mix it up about once a day while its aging. Ill make it at least a month befor I even start to taint my meat.

A couple of those jugs, the meat and cheese look a little close to the top for me. They plug the hole off and Boom. Might as well have taken that chainsaw to it. I know you had it happen before!!

Do you have to let the solution age before mixing it into the meat?

Mesh so they can breath but keep out flys. Note those beathing tubes are a lot longer than they have to be. Not even sure why i left them that long
