Someone told me before that cellophane is better because the jucies say on the wroms,with news paper they dont.let them thaw out for a bit there hard to get on the hook frozen and brake when hooking them.i find them a great bait in colder months.hope it helps :D

I thought the whole point of putting them into newspapaer was to toughen them up?

The newapaper drys them up as well, and everything else in them.from my own use of them the ones in plastic smell more than the newspaper ones.but i will buy either i cant say that one is thougher or prefroms better then the other because i see nothing between them

The news paper ones are grand just leave them out a few hours before you go fishing. wraps are better used when they are gooey in my experience in any ways. dont throw them away either refreeze them and use again.
