Fishbites Longer Lasting Baits are a type of synthetic fishing bait designed to provide anglers with a durable, long-lasting alternative to traditional natural baits. Here are a few key features of Fishbites Longer Lasting Baits:

1. Durability: Unlike soft natural baits such as shrimp or mullet, Fishbites are specially formulated to stay on the hook, thanks to a cloth binder at the core of the bait that holds it in place, even amidst the relentless movement of the surf and pesky bait stealers. Many anglers use a small piece of natural bait alongside Fishbites on the same hook. If the natural bait is lost, Fishbites remain, boosting your chances of hooking a fish.
2. Convenience: Since Fishbites are synthetic, they are easy to store and handle. Perfect for keeping in your tackle box, ready to use when you’re ready to fish. 
3. Variety of Scents: Fishbites come in different scents to attract a wide variety of fish species. They are available in flavors like shrimp, clam, crab, and more, to appeal to the feeding preferences of various fish.
4. Effectiveness: Many anglers have found Fishbites to be just as effective, if not more so, than traditional baits.

These baits are a great option for those looking for convenience and long-lasting effectiveness without the hassle of constantly re-baiting their hooks. Depending on the water temperature, each piece of Fishbites® will last between 15-45 minutes. 

How to use Fishbites: All you need is a sharp pair of scissors or a knife to easily cut your Fishbites to the desired size. They can be used on their own or paired with fresh or frozen bait. At Frank and Fran’s, we recommend using about a ¾-inch piece per hook.  Frank & Fran’s double drop bottom rigs are great rigs for using Fishbites.

How to store Fishbites: While fishing, it’s best to keep your Fishbites bag sealed and dry. For short-term storage, they’ll stay in great condition in your tackle box. For longer-term storage, refrigerating them will help slow any color changes.Storing them in an airtight container or bag can prevent dehydration and hardening, keeping them fresh for over a month. If your Fishbites become tough, don’t worry—they’ll soften once in the water, as long as they can still be hooked.

Avoid leaving Fishbites in hot cars or sheds for extended periods. While the heat won’t affect their scent or durability, it may cause the color to darken.
