Depending on your bait shop the mackerel there might be just as good as they are all flash frozen.. but the supermarket charges 4-5X's more... and the best squid is the squid you catch in may.. most of the supermarket squid is california squid and also from some island from the far east, again $$..
I like to fish mackerel chunks cut in small 1/2" circles or a fillet cut in half the long way on a gammie shiner hook.. I've pulled large bass from SPL out on the break wall... and if the bass aren't bitting dig it down deeper for some door mat's...
I don't think fresh has alot to do with it as much as presentation. I've caught some nice fish from some really rotten eels and one time I left my squid on the boat 2 days, it went all pink we still used it and still caught stripers...
Although when using fresh bait your stink factor is alot less when you come home and your vehicle will appreciate it as well as others that enter it.
