What is best to keep a bait/lure from freezing glycerin? I need something for my call lure, temperature is normally below -5 f or colder.

20% > 30% of glycerine to a gallon volume of bait should give you good results in those temps. If not add another 10% and evaluate once again. That will translate to about a quart or so to a gallon of bait for those temps.

Non toxic boiler anti freeze works great and you can probably get some for free. Mix it with Castor, whale / seal oil and some mint or Justin Bieber boy freind colon. I'm certain there are lots of people who got some for Christmas and never used it.

Unfortunately Ian, I don't have any access to whale/seal oil or I would try it. Sounds like good stuff and would be a very foreign odor in my area.
