Howdy brokenwing, No most guys don't use lure with snares. They just place the snares in the animals normal line of travel,or on the trails leading to a large bait (deer carcass or something similar). I'm not much of an expert on the subject though because snaring has been illegal in my state up until a couple years ago. And now it's only legal on private property which I don't have alot of access to anymore. wacyquacker seems to be quite the snare guy, judging from some of his pictures!
