Full Version: Thoughts on urine usage on the trapline...
Sportsman Forum > Precision Hunting > Trapping and Calling

I have been reading lately of some people, most it seems are fairly new to the sport of trapping, who feel that urine is not all that useful on the predator trapline... All I can figure is that they either have not tried good quality urine, or what they have tried was junk (and yes, there is alot going around)... Perhaps it is because I was taught useing good urines, but thru the years I have come to find that a good, pure, quality predator urine is as good as, or better than, any other attractor/fear reducer, on my lines...and I always used quite a lot of it each season...even to the point of catching and keeping my own animals to collect their urine, so that I know what I am getting........... What are your thoughts about urine and it's usefulness on traplines ?

I remember a seasoned predator caller tell me and others at a seminar. That if you want fox urine to work as a cover scent you have to place a dab behind both ears. We asked him what did his wife think of that when he got back from predator hunting?

I always gave a squirt down my dirt hole sets. It does bring in all predators. They think when they go for that dirt hole set that a red buried something it and marked it with a shot of his urine. So you actually can catch critters even without using a lure.

I use to use red, coyote, skunk for predator calling. I stopped about 2 years ago my wife did not like the smell of it behind my ears. No I never did listen to the guy that said to place it there. I carried it in a scent vent that was pinned to my coat. I did stop using it for calling since I learned to set up so I could get a shot before the incoming predator got a whiff of me.

Well, UB... I've used probably a couple barrels of various urines over the years, in various ways...but gotta say that I have never tried it as cologne behind my ears.....LOLOL
