how long can you keep baitfish salted and still be good to use. Or Better to just freeze till ice?

Why not salt and then freeze? I have read that some people salt them and freeze them. Just google salting minnows for instructions.

pickle them in windshield washer anti-freeze for 10 minutes, then freeze them. They absorb the alcohol and won't crystallize when frozen. They are a little stiff and rubbery when thawed but the fish don't mind. They stay on the hook quite well.

Windshield fluid winter mix not summer mix. Winter mix has alcohol which is an anti-freeze
