yes, I only use fresh preserved in my lures and as long as my customers keep telling me its working, then I'm good.
I know Paul and others rot glands for 2-5 yrs, though, and also have successful lures.

Golden colored cat gland is good for what ails you. Everything wants a sniff. Has to age, rot down, for a couple years minimum. That golden color isn't from urine either. Its just what good cat gland looks like after its aged.
Red Fox gland comes close to cat gland. Coyote gland is at the bottom of the three for usefulness IMO though I still use some. At times.

Was doing some digging in the archives here and I was wondering if I could ask how to go about aging glands? I've got glands from 9 otter and was going to age some of them and use others fresh. Do you age them in a container? Sorry for the stupid question?

So submerged them in good quality urine in a glass jar? Room temperature okay? Do I cover the jar and burp it occasionally? Thanks for the help.

Thank you both, that helps a lot. I will have to experiment. Are you adding any sodium benzoate or just letting them literally rot?
