I poked a hole in a dead bloated otter floating in the canal out back so it would sink. The gas coming out of that thing almost knocked me out.

New Orleans cold storage on Jourdan Road and Industrial canal a month after Katrina. Millions of pounds of rotting chicken. Could smell it for blocks

We had a garbage can full of old rotten cheese we used to bait hoop nets with. Literally killed the maggots that got in it. Most foul shite on the planet.

Our refrigerator 2 weeks post Katrina. The flood water tilted it back into a corner in the house, and when we were trying to get it out the door opened. It was awful.

Mullet scraps left in a cooler in the summer. Maggots had managed to get in somehow. There was a little water in the cooler too. Just downright putrid

I left a couple of Bonita and a Kingfish in a cooler on my boat. I was going to freeze them for bait but forgot they were in there while cleaning the boat. Left the boat in storage for 6 weeks before I made it back for the next trip. I set the cooler on the ground next to a dumpster and took my boat. I had to find a new storage facility as I could not go back there ever.

When they closed the old sugar mill at Meeker they didn't clean up at all, just shut the place down in mid-production, apparently.

The smell of rotting sugarcane (bagasse) is like the worst dog shite you've ever smelled.

I'm sure it doesn't compete with a rotting corpse, though.

I have smelled my share of dead bodies and they are pretty damn bad but there are worse smelling things than a dead body bro.

chum/pogies

Fishing buddy of mine makes his own home made pogey oil for fishing. He fills a five gallon bucket three quarters full of pogeys, clamps down the lid, and lets it bake in the sun on his pier for a few weeks. Oil rises to the top as they bake and break down in their own juices. He has to occasionally crack the lid so it won't explode and when it's time to scoop oil, that smell is something that will gag a maggot.

As a new frat pledge in college, I had the luxury of picking up the 15 sacks of crawfish for the annual alum boil....in my Toyota Camry. During the 60 mile journey a few of the bags broke a couple of those being in the trunk. Damn crawfish got into the frame of the car and slowly died and decayed. It was a loooong time before the smell cleared up. Also didn't help with dating.
Side note, figured out the bags broke because i felt something bite my ankle while driving. Since it was night I had to turn on the dome light, when I did my I saw my whole floor was crawling with 'em.

I should have limited thread to your backyard. I am having trouble getting some of these images out of my head. By the way, the dog that sparked this thread jumped up in my lap last night, with a candy cane that he had stolen out of the kids bedroom. I guess he needed to cleanse his palate

What about a neighbors yard?

My old neighbor bought a brand new bass boats, went fishing caught 2 bass on his first 2 cast. Fished till the afternoon and didn't get another bite. He ended up forgetting about the two fish he had in the live well. I was really young at the time playing out in the yard, when he opened that live well I went inside really quick.

When I worked at rouses. One of the brothers cooked five sacks of crawfish. Put them scalding hot into a closed ice chest which went into the walk in cooler over night. Everyone got an arse chewing. Still the worst ever. I'm pretty tolerant to smells. This shite I'm dropping right now though is bad enough to peel paint off a wall.
