I made some, I'm hoping to have good results out of it this season. Although since this will be my first full season, I'm hoping to have good results regardless.

Well Lazarus it is a bit tough to keep it in stock. Seems every hole I put it down has something at the end of my chain
Thank you for the recipe.

I just bought 17 lbs of pig fat to render down to lard, lots of meat in it. figgure it would work the same as putting bacon in it.if not, I got lots of bacon grease to throw in, them college kids eat lots of bacon!i got 5 gallon buckets of it!

I don't know about everyone else, but I wasn't using the lard for a different odor; I was using it to stretch the bacon, make it soupier and make it leech into the ground to make em dig for it.

Laz I think the lard addition was a good move! once the lard leaches into the soil you now have tinctured bacon and honey working for you! No matter how hard they dig its not leaving

Hey Lazarus, sir I made some bacon bait back before season. Seldom gave me your recipe. My question is I didn’t use all of it will it still be good next year or should I have froze it. Didn’t know if it would spoil.

Did you add any preservative?

A few years ago when I made something similar to this, I put it in a small fridge I had dedicated to bait and lure. It's been there since...
