If you want to freeze crabs/prawns, freeze them in salt water. Doesnt have to be seawater either, just mix up some salt and water. I use the cheap food storage containers from New World. Bait the hook, bait cotton on. Hooks and bait in the tub, lid on, with the rest of the trace hanging outside. I do em up in tubs of ten. Going fishing, just throw the tubs in your chilly bin. By the time you get to your fishing possie, they will pull apart but still be frozen, clip the trace on and out she goes. I do the same with fish bait. When the bite comes on, you are ready to go. No mucking around bait cottoning, and losing bite time, which sometimes don't last long.
