Teo Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 I was thinking of buying some cell from Angling Direct But do they not defrost in the delivery? or are they delivered specially? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greekskii Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Normally overnight delivery. Boilies are fine to be re-frozen. oscsha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 They should send them in polystyrene boxes so they don't defrost. However, unlike the others I will never refreeze boilies. Best way to get 'frozen' boilies delivered is before they have been frozen after being dried. emmcee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smufter Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Whenever I have ordered freezer baits, if they turn up frozen I'll say "Good" and whack 'em in the freezer. On the other hand, if they turn up thawed out, or "fresh" I'll say "Good" and whack 'em in the freezer. I've never noticed a reduction in catch rates. or longevity of the bait. kevtaylor and welder 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Frozen baits straight from the manufacturer make more sense than from a shop. emmcee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevtaylor Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Mine come fresh ready for freezing, but I have no issue with freezing and re-freezing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greekskii Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Re-freezing doesn’t give them any life but it keeps them going. Perfectly fine as long as you understand that every day thawed is a day off it’s life. Ask any bait maker and they will tell you this.

ouchthathurt Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 I'm afraid it's a little of both... A worm omelette was once knocked up by an oppo on an escape and evasion course... I can't be sure where the eggs came from (to this day I pray from a duck...) It was pretty minging just muddy eggy mush. I decided against finishing that particular delicacy! when this dude sharpened a stick to try spear a frog I thought he had gone a bit native, it was almost a relief getting captured by the infantry lads, even if I got to wear a fetching sandbag and be ridiculed about the size of my manhood (to be fair it was freezing!) and stand spread eagled up against a wall for a while. Come to think about it, I'm not sure if the Hunter force were infantry or the local BDSM club!! They seem to have similar practices (so ive, ahem, heard!) crusian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
