I know blast frozen bait seems to stay firmer once it begines to thaw. Though i've recently started bying fresh mackeral from ASDA, big, fresh and plump... and a very good price too. I freeze them when i get home and haven't noticed any change in catch results.

Also tried their herring, though i've not really had much joy with it. Originally purchased it to use as conger bait around the local harbour, yet to try it for that particular purpose yet.

[i hate whiting]

sounds about right to me

Well you should feed about 4 people with that, are you BBQ'ing them mate ?

Seriously, I get mine from the chinaman across the road very cheap, but that sounds about right.

[big guy]

sounds about right if the macky's ammo ammo.

i thought the fish in supermarkets were frozen and de frosted, i know the tesco ones are. you can't beat ammo IMO, i'm never use anything else.

I have certainly purchased "fresh" Mackerel from supermarkets that I would not consider fit for bait.
