Their's two types of oil. Canola is a liquid which is good to put on stuff, bread, wheat corn etc. The Chinese restaurant used lard instead of canola and when it's cold it gets hard and the Bears will eat this like candy and when it heats up they drink it . The older Bears know what it is and some of the younger Bears have no idea what it is. It's good because their's always food for the old ones and they keep coming back.
Stink bait musk rats is the best, but hard to get. I'm making some new stink baits for the new sites and I'm using fish in 5 gallon buckets . I tie a heavy weight on the end of a rope and get it as high in a tree as I can. Lower it to the ground, drill holes in the bucket and hoist it up and tie it off. I don't think I need it, but over kill is good. A guy brings guts and other fish, so later I'll find out what type of fish they like to eat for future reference.
Lol,I have a guy coming and I'm saving the bear for him. I'll hunt mid June.

Great looking bears Greenhorn
I'm a bit disappointed. Still no action at my bait. I bought some anise seed and mixed it with anise oil in a homemade burn (cans with tea lights).
I've sprayed anise and vanilla for hundreds of yards and my barrel contains dog food, corn/grain, molasses, 2 gallons used fryer oil, popcorn, a pound of butter and some lard. What else if anything can I do. I'm reading about other baits getting bears regularly now but not mine.
A stink bait, my new baits haven't been hit yet. It's been a whole week. The first two years it took a huge bear about 6 weeks to find my baits and never left.
You might have to open a new bait. I like baits near a river.
Thanks every one for the feed back.
June is the best time to hunt,the rut is in full swing.
