Very good idea and yes I did think of doing that. Will see how I like the first order of freezer baits and go from there.
Like you I don’t like putting un used bait back in the freezer or air drying it so that’s the attraction of shelf life’s.

Have you thought of buying a split order. Just take a small amount of freezer baits that you know you'll use and a larger amount of shelfies that can be used if the fish need more bait. Any left just stays in your bag for next time. Putting defrosted bait back in the freezer really irks me, once is ok but after that I'm not so sure.
This year I'm experimenting by vacuum sealing my freezer baits in 1kg lots. Hopefully any unopened bags can go back in the freezer without too much detriment.

Evening lads,
Apologies for not being on here for a bit but as usual, my life is a bit turbo!
I’ll try and answer what I can as quickly as possible?
Shelf life or fresh?
I always used to use freezer baits and I always will but……..modern shelf life’s are very good!
It’s the same bait, but with preserve added to the shelf life, and dried for a day longer! A good bait is a good bait in either form! Some of my consultants are on the shelf life’s now and no signs of any change in catch reports!
Crayfish and sting…….many many people say this to me but I got crayed on one last time out angling!!
Shows……..not this year as I am still investing all my time and money on the new site and ingredients!!
It has been a very busy start for us this year and it’s odd as most lakes are frozen! I’m still catching up, making basemix, playing with the new ingredients in the new bait and trying to raise a family and fish on a Friday night! I’m so excited about 2023 and the feedback from you guys is just on another level! The hookbait sales are crazy, hundreds keep piling out each week and lots of nice fish being caught (not this week though😉
If you need any help I will keep checking in here in the evenings!

I have seen Gav say that too but my catch rate has not suffered in the slightest.If I'm honest my catch rate on Handcraft shelflife is far better than when I was on freezer bait from another really well known firm
