By: Travis Wendt of Reel Time Fishing I’ve been curing shrimp for steelhead fishing for decades. The process has always been time consuming and tedious, but necessary to have good bait to catch fish. Pautzke Shrimp & Prawn Cure just changed that. With the pour of a bottle I’m getting perfect bait in a fraction […]
By: Mike Ainsworth In the Pacific Northwest spawn sacs are not a go to method for steelhead like it is in the Great Lakes. However, in recent years it’s rapidly gaining popularity. Usage is increasing. A few years ago, several well-known guides were using them daily and tried to keep it a secret. The word […]

The weather is warming, the bite is improving and anglers are finding steelhead throughout GTA rivers and in […]
By: James Swearingen We are in the heart of spawn sac season in the Great Lakes and for the first time in more than 20 years I’m using something different in my sacs. Historically, I’ve had to fish with salmon eggs and brown trout eggs that I harvested in the fall in New York. Meanwhile, […]
