I've seen them pick corn out of the most sour smelling mud hole under a feeder you could imagine.

I've always wanted to get them trained some how. Like feed them a certain food with a distinct smell for months. Maybe mix in a little cocaine or meth with it then cut them off for a week. Once they have withdrawals I can come in and put some out and when they smell it they come running

For easy hunting plain dry corn and time. They will find it and pattern it as long as its a timed feeder with minimal throw.


For quicker results soured corn. 1 40 lb bag two 5 gal buckets with lids, and warm water. Allow to sit in sun lids on for 1 week. Dont spill it in vehicle. Place on ground where you want them but also hang some in a burlap sack about 6 ft up so it drips slowly and gets smell in the air.


If you need to turn the back on after they get wary of a site, try switching the bait up. In those circumstances we alternate dry corn, soured corn, and fruity sweet corn in that order.


Lots if options for fruity sweet but I like to add no sugar added rasberry jello powder to 2 liters of cheap pinnapple soda. Pour our dry corn and a pkg of jello powder on top of it and then spray the area with the soda mixture ( get it on the trees)


Diesel soaked corn, anything peanut butter, rotting fruit, any soda flavor especially rootbeer, rice bran, sweet feed, molasses, etc all work too. Dry or wet.

If you need them to alert you they are there (hunting in the dark) a hog pipe works well. If you need a long time to take a shot or have a very specific place you need them, dig a hole with post hole diggers and put the bait in there.
