I have heard many different options on this. I keep my baits and lures in a cool, dark place. I was cleaning it out this evening and found some lure that's 10+ years old. I also had some sealed bait that was 8 or so years old. I once again look forward to your opinions. Thanks again.

Does it still stink? Then use it.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Never seen an expiration date on bait or lure.

… any call lure with skunk in it dissipates fairly quick
