Ok so everyone knows how frozen anchovies stay on the hook better than thawed greasy ones. Have any of you frozen your anchovies in a block of water and slowly picked away at the ice throughout the day so the chovies stay frozen?

the cooler I am bringing will be filled with beer so that is not really an option.

dude i was thinking about doing something similar, but with mussels. give it a try i think it'll work out pretty well.

Definitely done it before. Usually when done with a day of fishing we get the dines/chovies out of the bait tank and freeze them in a plastic bag with water in it. Works great for fresh frozen bait and for plenty of nice chum.

for me i just go to big fish bait and tackle and buy already frozen ones! for you boat guys just buy a lil 5 dollar thermo bag and some dry ice and they will stay frozen all day.
