Can freeze-dried crickets be used for fishing?

Freeze-dried crickets can be used for fishing, but the effect may not be as good as fresh crickets. ‌
Although freeze-dried crickets retain the shape and some nutrients of crickets, their freshness and activity have been greatly reduced. When fishing, live crickets can struggle and wriggle underwater, which is easier to attract the attention of fish, while freeze-dried crickets lack this dynamic effect. In addition, some key ingredients for attracting fish may be lost during the production of freeze-dried crickets, which may also affect their fishing effect.
In contrast, fresh crickets perform better in fishing. Fresh crickets can struggle and wriggle underwater, and this dynamic performance can attract the attention of fish more. When using fresh crickets, you need to pay attention to keeping them fresh and replace the inactive crickets in time to ensure the best fishing effect‌.
