11/7/2011 9:20:00 PMI'd like to see a photo of the jig too. I always like seeing folks fish jigs with success. I'm a free drifter myself but what ever gets er done!!! The chums love that green & pink or green & red combo. I have a pattern I call the scarlet harlot that works wonders. The coho don't seem to go quite as bonkers for those colors anymore. I seem to attract more coho now with purples and reds mixed with various other colors.

11/9/2011 7:11:00 AMI'm going to try fishing with a jig and shrimp for the first time, do you guys do anything with the prawns prior to baiting them (like cure them in borax or something) or do you just throw them right on the jig "as is" from the supermarket?

In my experience straight raw prawns tend to fall a part pretty easily. Everybody has their own way. Me personally, I have my own recipe for steelhead - never used em for salmon though.
