Caviness Mink Master Lure

This lure relies on the scent of mink glands to trigger territorial instincts in other predators. Because many predators, such as fox and coyote, view mink as competitors or intruders in their territory, they are naturally drawn to investigate the source of the scent.

Yes, the gland-based formulation is designed to hold up well in various weather conditions. However, like most lures, it may become less volatile in extreme freezing temperatures, so you might need to apply a slightly larger amount to maintain scent dispersion.

Apply a small amount—roughly the size of a pea—directly onto your backing or into the hole of your set. Because it is a potent territorial lure, a little goes a long way, and over-application can sometimes cause animals to shy away rather than investigate.

Absolutely. It works well as a change-of-pace lure when paired with food-based baits or other gland lures. Using it as a secondary scent can help pique the curiosity of wary predators that have become accustomed to standard food lures.

The longevity depends on your trapping frequency and application style, but a 4 oz bottle is a generous supply for a typical season. Since you only need a small dab per set, one bottle should be sufficient for several dozen sets.
