1 cup borax
1 cup sugar
1 cup salt
1 quart water

Mix everything together, let the egg sit in the brine for 1 hour. Take out, dry, and then go kill some fish on them!
That will give you the best looking steelhead egg out there that holds up!

Sodium Sulfite works nice on getting a good color of eggs!

If you look at a few fishing boards you will find these two listed. They work good for steelhead fishing!

I read for that one to do an 1hr to an hour and a half(did for one hour)(I would give the web site link, but, might get in trouble for doing that)
Yes, pro glow dye if you want more color....but steelies had no problem takin the egg without the dye.

I like to take the eggs I get out of May springers or Ocean salt silvers/chinooks and cure them up in the Amermans Salmon egg cure. Now that gives a sweet egg right there.
