CBS2 is reporting the bones may date back 5-10 years. I think it's too soon to determine exactly how old they may be other than to say they've been there a long time.

I agree, and am waiting to hear something more official about that. I think some of these news reporters might have taken LE's estimate that the bones have been there 'for years' and turned that into a specific number of years that they think that means.
Just heard on the news.. Channel 5, I believe... The suspect was someone that "stayed" at the Bait Shop??? I am looking for the feed on the NEWS, but haven't found it.
I'm not sure what to make out of "stayed at the bait shop". When? Before or after it closed? Was it still known as "the bait shop" to locals long after the placed closed down and was vacant? If that's the case it could mean someone who was known to stay in the building long after it closed down. (snip)
I'm not sure what to make of that 'stayed at the bait shop' comment, either. It doesn't look like there was an apartment over the bait shop, but maybe there were one or more rooms at the back that someone could live in. Perhaps the crawlspace was under that part of the building?
From what I've found on Google, it looks like an address of 1718-1/2 Indianapolis Blvd does exist, but I don't know if that means there's a separate (living) entrance to the building.
This picture (taken from www.viewofhouse.com) doesn't really tell much, other than giving an idea of what the shop looked like at one time:
