Default How long do Yamamotos last outside bag?

Just wondering if soft scented worms lose much of their scent once
outside the plastic bag.
Is there a way to "refresh" them with some sort of microwave trick? My
box is always full of worms that are in good shape but I just can't
tell if they are no longer smelly enough for the fish.


I'm guessing indefinitely. Some baits like Venom's Sweet Dreams that have a
scent on them already may start to have the scent fade if they are out of
the bag after a while, but if you like the scent on your baits just rub a
tiny dab of MegaStrike on your baits and you are good to go again.

As to the guys who ponder, "To scent or not to scent?" I can't answer all
the dumb stuff, but I've got pretty good anecdotal evidence on multiple
occassions that the fish hold onto the bait longer even if I don't get
anymore bites. Stiatistical evidence? Nope. Too busy fishing to try and
put together a good study.
