Myth Busting - Refrozen Bait... Does it Work?
Having recently tidied the shop freezer, I found a few packets of old refrozen baits, including sandeels, squid and herring. So I thought I'd challenge myself and fish one rod with new bait, and one rod with manky old bait! Which one will catch the most fish?
I decided to fish the beach at Milford Shingle Bank, as I knew there would be plenty of fish to catch. Lot's of hints and tips for anglers of all abilities.

  • @JaseTheOptimisticFisherman
    @JaseTheOptimisticFisherman 10 днів тому

    Squid seems to be great in and out of the freezer but most fish baits seem to go a bit crappy apart from Bluey which seem to be excellent on the thaw/refreeze. I'll use half a Bluey and freeze the rest for the next session. Mackerel just goes rubbish. My best before date Spratt Morrisons specials don't fair well either but cheap bait with a pack costing £1.07 for 6

      I just found Christchurch Angling Centre a bit of a mouthful and a bit "corporate" sounding (although it is still my shop's name!). As you know, my videos are (hopefully) fun, light hearted shows, not marketing driven with throwing product down your throat 24/7 like the old name might suggest. I'm trying to promote fishing more than anything, and hopefully help a few people catch a few fish. So a switch to a simpler, more fun (?) name seemed appropriate.

    Fun vid that Tom 😎 I'd love you to redo this with fresh Vs refrozen a couple times bluey.. I'm absolutely certain that the rank refrozen bluey outfishes it fresh frozen. I do often wonder about how fresh the bait wants to be especially after a storm. What are the chances the fish find a lovely fresh bit of fish. Good chance they eat way more stuff that is absolutely minging and rotten 🤔😆 Let's face it we leave lug to go manky especially for dabs and flatties

    • @FishyTom
      @FishyTom 10 днів тому

      Absolutely that, mate! There's far more sent in older bait. I'll set aside ragworm a week before I need them this time of year. Gutted and rolled blow lug, aged blacks, pink squid. The list is endless. Fish are mostly scavengers, as you say. When it's dark, coloured water etc, scent is key.
