Hey Chad,


Im having a problem viewing your videos now... Its not my computer. Just wondering if theres any chance of it being uploaded to Youtube or if you could possibly send me a download link?

Thanks
Greg

I would have to say it is your computer. That or your internet connection. Let me know some details about both and I can help you out. I could also get you the video on DVD for a small price.

Its been ever since you switched to the jwplayer. The other one was fine! And we got a high speed qwest modem. It may be a problem or driver. who knows. I've tried with firefox and IE.

is it recommended to cut up the roe into pieces PRIOR to curing?

no idea what chad will say... But I butterfly mine... Which is cutting the eggs down the middle without poking thru the membrane of the egg. If I plan on using them the next day or within the next couple weeks... After I cure mine, I will cut em up and throw em into a bag with plan 100 mule or what ever it is borax.

No, I would not cut up the eggs into pieces prior to curing. It can dry them out or over cure them. This is if you are using a commercial cure, if you are just using salt, sugar and borax then you can cut it into pieces first. If you watch the video above you can see step by step what we do to our eggs from taking them out of the fish to curing and packaging! Its very detailed.

Well done Chad. Very nice video and everything covered.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>H

awesome vid; but i used red stuff procure and it created quite the dye; how do you keep it from coming off on your hands when you put the cured roe chunks on the hook?

That's a tough one, we just rinse off our hands or have a rag to wipe it off as soon as possible. You will get some red that comes off after a few day, if you are salmon fishing you can just wear gloves to keep it off your hands.

Now that I'm was able to finally watch it... I got a couple questions...

Was that white jar the procure one? If so, what's your opinion on it?
And then.. Have you guys tried the ole trusty wet cure? With the sugar, salt and borax?

The Procure Last Supper is a very good cure and I hear good things about Amermans as well as Pautzke Krill Cure. We used the sugar borax cure once and it works good for steelhead but we like to be different from everyone else so we use a cure for steelhead. Glad you can see the videos now!
