I got some squid and blueys and mackerel baits in the freezer compartment with a packet of wagon wheels ready to go for the weekend lol

Yeah smells have never been an issue for me but space is often a problem and this has just given me a whole draw in the freezer back. I was able to move several kilo of bait over two drawers into one 👍

I've never had a problem, I just keep boilies, squid, lugworm, dead baits etc in the normal freezer and never had a problem.
Our lass sometimes complains though as there is not much space left in it to put any more food in it sometimes.

A vacuum sealer is one of my best value "adopting middle age" purchases.
Use it for dozens of things beside fishing bait.
Wouldn't be without one now

Recently purchased and used this for my own rolled boilies to save space in the freezer and to allow hydro's to absorb better.
Came with 50 bags and it's done the job for £8.99 😁👍

+1, it's more a anglers concern than that of a fish, though I have yet to learn Carp language to confirm for definite 
Smells will leak, it's as simple as that. The better wrapped they are the less they will leak, but leak they will.
I'm on a mission to reclaim my bait freezer. Our home freezer broke and we started using my bait freezer..erm..several years ago  I went out for the 1st time in years 2 weeks ago and had to get to my bait 
So far I've enjoyed a lovely Lidl Ginger and something sorbet....with hints of shrimp and peach and some chesnut stuffing with hints of banoffee.

I wasn't being serious. 
Greekskii is spot on.

You don't need a different freezer for each bait

I live in a flat and don't have the luxury of a separate bait freezer.
Currently my fridge freezer has 2 draws of Hydra K and two drawers of food.
The bait is all bagged in individual 1kg zip lock freezer bags and the two bait drawers are lined with cardboard.
Never had any problems with smells / cross contamination ever.

Thank you both of you. Two different approaches!

You'll definitely need a separate freezer for each of your baits.

Mixing smells in your freezer wont affect the bait at all. In any case, bag them up, use some freezer bag clips or grip lock bags and you'll be fine.

Looking at getting a freezer in the shed for boilies and particles.
I like to have a few different smelling baits to choose from, depending on water.
I don't want to mix smells though.
Are freezers with shelves better for segregating bait, or just get some heavy duty grip bags and go with a chest freezer?
