I have a old refrigerator that runs what temperature should I have it on to store bait and lure in it?

Coon dog, dark and cool is usually enough but, honestly, the cooler the better. Keep her in the 60s is fair, 50s is good but 40s is better. Why not?

I have a old cooler and I keep my lures In It.
I really don't think It's a big deal. Do you think MTP removes all their lures from the shelves In the off season.

Good well formulated products whether lures or baits don't need refrigeration. Use reasonable judgment in off season storage to carry them to the next season. I don't do anything special with product inventory or ingredients in our facility. It does stay relatively comfortable in our building thru the summer months so that is all we do here.

I have dug two plastic 6 gallon buckets down into the ground. I left 6" above the ground to put my covers on. My shed smells a lot better than it used to and it is cool and dark for storage.

I did something similar on the north side of my shed. Works great.

They stay in 5 gallon buckets or bottle/jars in an unheated shed and some in a dry basement. No issues with mold or products going "bad", and they continue to trap critters and get predators attention. No need to pull your hair, if any out over storing bait and lure, if preserved appropriately.

I think most would agree lure and bait lasts a LONG time.

I put my lures in a food saver bag and vacuum them down and store them in the basement. Just got some Hellfire 2 days ago WOW, mail carrier was glad to get that out of his jeep. For the fridge what ever temp keeps the beer cold.
