Wish:

RT has posted some info on this in the past and even some coloring/brining recipes that I have used and worked very well with Springers on the Columbia. If I remeber right the brine was pro-cure coloring, distilled water, and various scents. I remember a diagram that also shows a double-hook rig for a prawn that RT put out. I think I saw all this info on the Oregon board.

I hooked a steelie on a prawn tail last week just using a single hook. Just put the hook in the prawn as if it were a sandshrimp tail, then insert a (flat) toothpick inside the center of the tail from top to bottom. The toothpick keeps the prawn tail from curling. Slide on a corky and your in business.

Hope this helps.
