salted bait?

[Tarpon4me]

That sounds like a heck of a lot of work just to preserve some bait. I'm sure it's the best way though, so don't think i'm knocking it. But I rarely have an issue with a bait washing out, and I don't do anything special. I pick up a box or bag of bait the day before a trip, and on the way out I thaw it in a bucket of saltwater. That's it. Now, I don't go just anywhere and buy bait either. I spend a few extra bucks and get the better quality stuff. The Boatersworld in Murrells Inlet is where I use to get my cigars and hoo's, but they closed down. What a bummer.
