Default Bear bait items

Hey guys, Trying to find some more options for bear bait stuff, got a bunch of beavers and oats but they're not exactly filling the barrel. What do you like to use and how/where do you get it?

well sir... this is what I use

vanilla extract mixed with water... spray area
restaurant old oil .. spash it around
freezer burned foods
pastries
cheap dry dog food (bags)
table scraps.. t-bones, fat etc etc

I'll vanilla spray the area and then vanilla spray me when I want to sit and wait... when I'm just baiting I'll just spray the area

then the trick is to prevent them from visiting at night when your not there. .. Ive heard of setting up a solar powered spot light so it flicks on at night when they come close.... in theory it'll scare them away until daylight when they won't notice the light and feed during the day

that's what I do and bears visit.. I don't have beavers or other road kill

hope someone gets a tip or 2
