older guy at work told me to put feathers in. I'm new also and haven't tried it but I'd trust him to steer me in the right direction.

we have used pockets for years and trapped minnows and chubs and poked them in the whole. Put them in a gallon can with a handle and as they age you can also use the juice to wipe on the back of the pocket

Definitely use feathers. They love them. I have seen tracks around my chicken shed. Also another time I saw one in the middle of the day trying to get inside. He had feathers in his mouth that he picked up off the ground. It was a cool experience

weather this is right or not what I did was I took feathers and I put them down in a hole and put mink lure on one and set the feather above the hole and put some small feathers around the set I used a 1.5 double jaw and buryed it under the dirt and I put just some fish with my feathers and caught him I dug the hole in the side of a creek bank next to a big tree with the roots sticking out cause I heard mink love tree roots this is what I did
