"How-To" | Cure Coon Shrimp For Salmon & Steelhead Fishing Bait

[@RowanBorat]

I tried this recipe as well as putting my own twist on it and boy did I slay steelhead last season, one after another. My buds and I landed five steelies in one trip. Most fun I had in awhile. Keep doing what you are doing

[@AddictedFishing]

Awesome to hear! Good work.

Great video like always. Without showing your hot spots. Reading water on the Columbia may be a video people could use to spread out. It's a big river and people can have success without fighting crowds. No hot spots needed! Thanks again for all the information!

[@AddictedFishing]

Thanks!

[@arooshka]

Great video. Have you tried these shrimps for Chinooks? Would the ingredients be any different for spring/summer Chinooks?

[@rexjonhdeer8180]

What's the best way to store them for long time storage and for how long will they store that way? Thanks again and tight lines

[@AddictedFishing]

You can refrigerate them. I never use ones that are more then 6 months old.

[@boattothebelly]

When you you add bite stimulants if you want to add those?

[@millerandrew4689]

I waa wondering if it's normal for the brine mixture to have a greenish tint to it? I used the red as well as distilled water and non iodized salts?

[@squatchymusings4421]

Wondering if this would work for surf perch?

[@joshharrel5668]

You said frozen coon shrimp? Can you recommend good sources/places to buy them? Also, did you put salt in there before adding water as well?

[@lukewrinkle7447]

Does it work in the sac? are we better curing crawdad?

[@PB-jk8bl]

Any reason you couldn't use the poured off cure on another batch of shrimp?

[@erikacruz1220]

Can you give me the name of scent that you used for the steelhead please thank you.

[@clarenceclay6669]

Soft ones go into the brads cut plug

[@halfwatt7905]

Thanks for the vid ..what kind of salt do you use?

[@AddictedFishing]

The best we have found is the salt you get from the feed store in the big 50 lb bags.

[@bscappell21]

love that stuff! cheap and no iodine!

[@fritskreunen8023]

how much salt did you put in your cure, is there a point where I may have too much in the cure?

[@AddictedFishing]

The more salt the firmer the bait will be. Experiment with amount of salt, we definitely like a firmer bait.
