Meat question?

[Special K]

Quick question for all the meat heads out there. I've ran meat before but only the strips. A buddy gave me some alewives he caught off the pier, I put them in the borax/kosher salt brine. My question is how should I run these? Just pin the alewive and go? Or cut the head off and clean out the entrails then pin em like on John Kings website?

As long as they fit in the bait head you can run them whole you just have to tune them to get the correct roll.

I agree! I have always used them whole and have had equal results compared to the strips!

Thanks great video! Anybody use the firebrine?

[ghfisherman]

a question when you guys are done fishing the baits that you have used do you put them back in your brine or just keep them in a plastic zip lok bag

We have been running the alewive whole brined with the fire brine and they have been working good.
