Using one of the solid bag kits (I use Fox), really does negate the need to make them in advance. I can get one done in a minute on the bank.

If your pellets are oily then that can affect the breakdown of the PVA (longer to breakdown), more so over time.
Also the buoyancy of the hookbait (wafters/pop ups) can be affected by the pellets drawing moisture from it, over time. Therefore making it more buoyant. I try to avoid having bags sat made up for longer than a week.
If you are going to have them made up for ages then less oily pellets and artificial hookbaits are the one.

I've never pretied solid bags, but quite often I will pretie a few sticks and the ingredients used can affect breakdown times considerably. I'd imagine it would be similar with solid bags.
Knowing this can be used to your advantage when you want a slower breakdown.

For the guys who pre-tie solid PVA bags before a session. How long would you let the pre-tied bags sit in your bucket and still feel comfortable using them? Have you found the breakdown time changes the longer they sit?
