I know I have seen it on there before, but I can't find it.

Lure makers -

If I wanted to store lure for a while and not have to drill a hole in the lid 5-10 yrs from now because it is crusted or rusted on, what's my best option? Also, other than taping the lid and vacuum sealing or ziploc bag, is there another idea to help it from potentially drying out like I have had some do?


All the recent talk of people retiring, new folks taking over brands, etc has me thinking I want to stock up on a few of my favorites.

A finger swipe of glycerin on the threads of the cap will prevent rusting. Or switch over to the poly lids. Store in a fairly cool dark place. If sealed up properly they shouldnt really dry out.

Vaseline the lid / cap riflings and a little on the bottle also. You will find that will prevent the rust from forming. If not buy a few extra caps / lids for the jars that you have.
