Hoosier Trapper Supply

Hoosier Trapper Supply began in 1976 when Charlie Masheck, an experienced trapper, decided to create a complete trapline outfitter focused on quality lures, baits, urines, traps, and equipment. What started as one man's passion has become a trusted resource for trappers and hunters nationwide.

Charlie didn't just sell products—he developed them. Over decades, he formulated the Leatherwood Creek line of trapping scents, testing every formula in real-world conditions across Indiana, Kansas, and Arkansas. His most recent creation, Top Dog Predator Bait, became an overwhelming success. Today, Leatherwood Lure is the first choice for trappers across the country because scent plays a critical role in trapping success.

"Scent plays a very important role in successful trapping. Who better to develop a line of deer hunting scents than a trapping scent formulator."

In 1981, Charlie expanded into deer hunting scents and attractants. He ensured his formulas were the best available and sold in quantities large enough to make a real difference. Today, HTS offers:

• •Lip Licker Deer Lure (their #1 seller)
• •Whitetail Gland Lure
• •Whitetail Doe in Heat
• •Dominant Buck with Tarsal
• •Whitetail Doe Urine

All deer urine is collected from a certified, inspected facility using healthy, CWD-free animals.
