I have just started making my own bollies (well carp company ones) and I have a few questions:
Once made I have frozen them, how long will they be effective after defrosting?

Is it effective using a different glug? I have fruit (EPA) flavour bollies and either banana ester or tuti fruiti csl glug?

Lastly any tips or extra additives that may help - thanks

How long would you leave a cooked, cooled egg before eating it?
That's how old your baits should be.

Once in water, then oxidisation will alomost cease, so they will deteriorate at a much slower rate.

Not sure on the glugs and dips, that's up to you and the fish.

So your saying a day or two? Can I add a preseverative?

Yes, a day or two.
You can add a preservative, although I wouldn't.
Try and air dry them, they'll last indefinitely once all the moisture has gone.

What we should be asking Rik is how long would you keep a bait the freezer and are freezer burnt baits still ok ?
