The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

I keep mine in the freezer. Then it stays in the cooler while on the boat. If it got too runny, I kept a ziplock bag of shredded paper I would mix in it. Flour or corn starch would work as well.

Order some of Stubby's cheese bait, it holds up to the heat pretty good, but he recommends keeping it on ice while fishing.

I use Stubbys and losing bait is part of the game. Now when I am smart and listen to stubby, I rig my rod with a treble hook only. Rigging with hook only you can feel by weight when your bait is gone.

+1. Also you can add some cat tails to it also.
