Any recommendations?
I know Baitworks, Dna, ABS.
Any other suggestions? Obviously not talking about baits I can buy in the tackle shop.
Particularly after Crab, seafood ingredients.
Thanks.

Seconded. OCB's shelflifes are excellent. I've used them this season due to a lack of freezer space and haven't noticed any difference in catch results at all. They're lovely and soft and remain so regardless of where you leave them or for how long

He doesn't do a crab bait and doesn't like shelflife. Good baits though.

Hampshire tackle do one called SS Crab, made by ABS for them on the malarky base mix with a few of their own tweaks thrown in. It's quite soft, but so far so good on it, and available in normal sizes shelf lifes and freezer baits.

I used some Munch Baits BioMarine the other day as it was cheap from GoOutdoors, seemed ok for a Shelf life.

I had used this for 8yrs until I managed to get a small chest freezer in the garage to enable frozen baits, excellent bait and a great catcher.
Speak to Jason at 5Star and he will even customise it for you and ship it out.

Krill, mackeral and garlic.

I've used it on Alton Water and had numbers of good fish, to 30lbs. Not found it being shelf life any problem.

yes I know. He will do stabilised but doesn't recommend it and the fishmeal bait he does isn't crab flavoured.
Are you sure?
