I'm making up 2 coon baits to try when the season opens.One is ground fish based with shellfish oil,fish oil and a gland product .The other one is based on ground up sweet corn,molasses,honey with a couple of other ingredients to help it reach out.I figure once all the corn is picked,corn,will still be attractive to coon.I may leave the shell fish oil out as I want the coons to eat the bait.No preservatives as I want them to eat this.I'll keep it cold until I use it.I can make small batches so it will stay fresh.
