Crab bait?
« on: August 15, 2020, 05:33:52 PM »
Fresh or stinking rotten 
Had success with both, Probably more with fresh”ish”
Had a freezer go bad and have a pile of chicken and some fish.
Going to go soak it regardless,

Just wondering what the consensus is?
One shot. One kill!

I have more luck with fresh bait. Even after a 48 hour soak I will change out what is in the pot and have seen better results when I do this.  But since your freezer went out you may as well try what you have.   :twocents:
