I've recently started using Moo Moo's anchovy brine recipe.  While I can't say it has resulted in more hookups, my baits stay much, much nicer looking for far longer.
My question is how long do the brined chovies stay viable for reuse if kept refrigerated?  I've been brining a couple of trays at a time for efficiency's sake, but certainly don't use that many at once. 
Any experience with this would be appreciated.

If there is enough salt in the brine , I use a different brine, I find the liquid doesn’t freeze in the freezer.  I keep mine in the freezer and keep em’ good n’ chilled while fishing then back in the freezer.  I’ve found them to stay beautiful for at least 3 trips as long as I don’t beat up the bag.. :smt006
