i have got some Active8 in the freezer that i have had for nigh on 5years now and yes i would still use them... a mate of mine from darn south was going through a bit of a lean patch and decided to break out some boilies he had in his freezer that were he estimates 9years old... 1st session using them he nails a 39lb common...  sweet!

Got to agree 100% I have had bait in the Freezer for 2 to 3 years and caught on it no problem at all I would not worry if it was older than that as I would still use it. I think it helps if the bait in Question is a quality bait rather than a very cheap bait but other than that I would not think twice.
