Alex and I throw the cast net to stock up on fresh gizzard shad for the winter. We add Kosher salt to a water and ice mixture in an ice chest. This lowers the freezing temperature from 32 degrees to 28 degrees, helping cool the bait faster and keep the ice from melting as fast. Adding salt to the bags of bait helps preserve it because most bacteria cannot survive in a high salt environment.
