How do you guys use bacon grease? Straight or do you mix things with it? Also do you just get some on a stick and put it in a hole. Mommas grease trap is full thought I mite try and use it to tap. Also what animals like it? Thanks

Once you get all those grinners out of the way then the fun catches will start!

Bacon grease used to be my go-to for grey and red foxes, along with rotted egg. I still use them both to this day.
I always used the grease straight up, but I know a very successful fox guy who spikes it with smoke or shellfish oil.

Dale Bacon grease with a tiny dab of liquid smoke will make a grey fox dig halfway to China. If a 'possum doesn't get to it first, that is. Ive tolled in a fair amount of coon with it, too. Get a cheap bag of dry dog food and saturate it with bacon grease, and shove it down a dirthole.  |

Bacon grease works well and is waterproof..Just a glob in a dirthole and coon search it out..Have also used smeared on a sapling and caught em..One set that was behind my old house still had remnants of the bacon grease well after a month later on the sapling..Ive currently just mixed some bacon grease with some old cheese dip that was in the back of the fridge..Wont be able to try it out till next season though..Snowed in here..

Lard is also a great one! thats what we use to fry all our fish/turkeys/taters in. that stuff is like gold to me! i used some over and over again. finally it got nasty. threw it out in the road next to my woods. seen it the other day. either dogs, coons, or yotes gots a hole dug right where i dumped it all at. looks like they actually ate the greese when it hardened and tried to dig it up. lard best stuff to fry with. |

My wife caught her first fox this season using bacon grease and fish oil. You can't beat the old stand-bys.

k heres a great mix get a benut butter jar, then put about half full of bacon grease, then ad about 7 anouses of shelfish oil, then ad some cat food to make it payste. ok run it under some hot water and stir it up then ur ready to go. I really dont think we hade one coon pass it up. Every season because of school I trap for two weeks. Ok u may not believe me but my dad and I caught 312 coon in two weeks. WE almost got no sleep trying to do it but WE DID IT it was a great sason

How did I miss this bacon grease post, this ones been here a while ;D
Anyway I had a coon that was going into my live trap and getting the bait but not stepping on the trigger.
I smeared some bacon grease on the trigger and that nailed him!
