Northwest Fishing Reports

Thanks for all the inside information on the freezing smoked fish guys. I think other people picked up on those comments, also.

Now, I have some decent sized skeins from these 20" to 24" trout I saved. I haven't cured my own yet, but these look too nice to discard. How do I do a cure where I won't dry these small diameter (About 1" X 8" long) skeins out to where they are unusable?:rendeer:

Also, is there anyone from this site that lives in or close to Omak or Okanogan?

I save my large trout eggs like what youre talking about. I drift with them. They really stay on the hook nicely. Pro Cure is what I would use or just freeze them fresh.Pro cure will candy coat them and keep them firm. I think Cutthroat eggs are very good bait and have done well in the past with them.All the eggs are good for bait even the smaller ones.Experiment around a lil. Dont use too much Pro-Cure cuz then they will get too hard. Theres my .02 worth.There are other methods but that is mine .

Whew! For a while there I thought that you guyys were talking about eating egg skeins as this was posted in culinary delights.

Hey Wolverine, ever hear of trout caviar? Gotta be hardcore, or somethin'...............

There wasn't a fish nursery section.

Actually it's not bad. Wash in 100% brine then lightly pack in fine noniodized salt for a few days then enjoy! A nice cracker and a spot of sour cream......yyyyyyuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Truely a delight.

i will have to try that

I'm with Bodo on this .I eat Mullet Roe,Carp Roe, Shad Roe,and Salmon Roe.Its all good if properly fixed.

I like to use my trout eggs and cure them with pro cure .The crappie cant get enough of them
