I have a couple of ounces of salmon roe bags left. Is it ok to throw them into the freezer for a few months?

i have done the same, few weeks back when i went to use them, some were no good, others were very loose but all in all they were still good enough for fishing.. i found that alot broke due to netting sticking to eggs when they were no longer frozen....
im thinking i should of wraped them in papper towel to insure they were dry before freezing......

they are very milky when u use them, only last a lil while tho...
i had used pro cure on them..

Do they not keep at refrigerator temperature?

I thaw/refreeze my roe bags each trip.

I slam fish on roe bags I tied 3 years ago (and have subsequently refroze at least 30 times) and they still work fine.

I keep them in the freezer when needed, no problem.

It is ok to freeze them as long as you properly cure them first.. That's how I keep 'em

I have never cured my roe.. and it keeps fine.

My roe bags were purchased retail as single eggs by the ounce. I made them into bags at home, sounds like they will be ok in the freezer.

That's what i have done as well. I understand from another post that all commercial eggs are required to be treated in some fashion.

i cured my roe with mineral water and salt put the roe in water with non iodize salt leave it for 2 or 3 hours and dry them with table tissue freeze them and when you need it unfreeze it and still good for long long time because its preserve here's my home made cured rainbow trout i just cured it today or stream hardening leave it for 15mins or more depends what hardening you want on roe i hope this may help you

Where did you get that roe at this time of year? I caught a nice hen that I kept for the table and it was all skeened up. That must have been a lake O hen, I knew the lake O Chinook eggs were orange, didnt realize the rainbow roe was orange too. I wonder what it is about Lake O that makes the roe orange.
