Live Prawns

To attach live prawns, carefully pass the hooks point under the first shell section after the tail. Do not attempt to go for more as the prawn will die. Live prawns are gulfed down by all fish and your hook will take.
If your fortunate enough to be able to gather live prawns, your fishing experience is sure to be successful. They make an excellent bait for virtually every estuary species and many ocean going species too.
You'll need a good aerator and continual water changes to keep them alive. If they die, freeze them immediately, however, once thawed, they do not re freeze well.
Dead prawns are simply attached by threading the hook up through the body from tail to head.
