For the weekend warriors like myself, how do you guys keep your leftover bait if you’re not fishing them for a week or so?
If cured with salt, I move to a container and put in the freezer. Then I move to the fridge 24hrs before my next trip. They usually look a bit too dry at the beginning but I soak them in the ocean water for afew minutes and they revive their fresh look again.
For the wet brined bait, I air dry on paper towel then pack in a ziploc and put in the fridge for a few days. If longer, add some birax to the ziploc and put in the freezer.
