Heyyup Chaps,

I've never used them before but have a couple of venues in mind where I am going to try them. Do you use them straight from the packet? Or do you rinse/treat them first?

Kind regards,
Dave

I have only used them for perch, l prefer them cooked and use them straight out of the packet on a kamasan 983 size 4 or 6 .
I get them from any of the super markets.

Normaly the one I am closest to or going past..

Nearly always hair rig them, use a baitband on the hair and slip it over the tailend of the prawn...

Cheers Mate, I'll give that a go.

Fished on a float pat rig, 2/2,5 inch hook length with a rotten botom 1oz flat pear and a 2/3gramm float.

Thats how I used to fish it

That's great Ray, thanks for the info, I'll be sure to give it a try.

I have used them in the past, with some success. However, these days they're too pricey and too tasty to use as bait. The fish can sod off, I'm having them
