Taking freezer bait on holiday to France and keeping it fresh can be a problem, but it doesn’t need to be.

There are ways to ensure your freezer bait will last well in excess of a week, even in the height of summer, without the need to go through the laborious task and air-drying and then rehydrating at the lake.

Earlier this year, Alex Shorrock visited the hugely popular Abbey Lakes complex in France for a two-week session. For this trip, he took solely freezer boilies and absolutely decimated the normally challenging Heron Lake over the course of a week, landing two sixties and four fifties as part of a 23-fish haul.

In this little piece, Alex explains exactly how he prepared his bait for that session, utilising some of the liquids in the DNA range and some very handy reusable cable ties!
