Northwest Fishing Reports

Just got my first AND second bobber and egg kings! One Jack and one about 18ish pounds! That is all. Carry on.

Next question. Im sure it is like sharing your favorite fishing hole, but what are some great effective brine recipes? I picked up some Borax o fire and have some eggs curing in that, but what are some good ones?

Pro glow is a good one and fire cure.I have had good results with those~!

non iodized salt and sugar? Do they put that stuff in the commercial cures like pautzkies?

Scott Haugen,s book "egg cures" has some great ones, find one that is best for you!good luck.

Do you use any sulfite for eggs specifically for salmon? As a general rule I thought sulfite based for salmon and borax for steel. Do you use the above for everything and cater the scent?

I'll be playing around with homemade cures this season. Was reading one guys recipe that included powdered milk. Said the protein drives them nuts...anyone else use powdered milk?

Thanks! I'll have to remember to bring some along just in case.
