PAUTZKE FIRE BRINE
Fire Brine replaces homemade brines. It takes the guesswork out of brining, while toughening your bait so it doesn’t break apart as quickly, prolongs the life of the bait, makes it flashy, helps the scales shine, gives it color and makes it more durable, saving you time and money!
What you need:
- Fire Brine color of your choice
- 1 Gallon Ziploc or Tupperware
- Frozen/fresh cut bait
Various Colors
Fire Brine is available in seven colors (blue, natural, red, chartreuse, orange, purple, & NEW green) to provide maximum flexibility in your bait choices.
Step-By-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Remove cut bait from bait trays and place in Ziploc or Tupperware.
- Step 2: Pour enough Fire Brine in bag/container to submerge cut bait.
- Step 3: Store in a cool place for 6-12 hours.
75 years of world-famous “Balls O’ Fire” salmon eggs, Pacific Northwest favorite Pautzke Bait Co. now continues the family tradition of providing the finest baits and attractants to trout, salmon and steelhead anglers around the world with a recipe that’s been in the Pautzke family vault for three generations: Fire Brine.
A proprietary mix of Dad Pautzke’s most tried-and-true curing agents and vibrant dyes, Fire Brine provides the toughening, coloring and scent agents that are the key elements of a brine, all in a simple one-step, out-of-the-bottle mix that makes it easier than ever for anglers to achieve the perfect baits, whether they’re advanced or raw beginners.
Fishing as we do throughout the famed salmon and steelhead ground of the West Coast and Great Lakes, we’re well aware of the effectiveness of brined herring, anchovies, alewives and shrimp baits for salmon and steelhead, and Fire Brine is one-step preparation for both fresh and frozen baits. There’s no mixing required: Simply follow Team Pautzke’s instructions and you’ll be fishing the best brined baits you’ve ever prepared in no time.
Because we’ve lived on and fished the West Coast all our lives, one of the most tried- and-true uses of Fire Brine has always been on herring. Ditto for sardines & anchovies, minnows, shad, smelt & alewives in the Great Lakes and ballyhoo on the East Coast. Dad Pautzke learned long ago that Fire Brine turns all meat baits into irresistible baits!

Been using this product for the last 4 years. I've tried other brine products from other companies, but this is the one I keep coming back to. It's never in stock in the local sporting goods store because it's so good. I'll never use any other product.

I'm an ocean guide in SE Alaska at Steamboat Bay Fishing Club. I was looking for an edge this season so I tried some attractants. It was the toughest season on record for kings. When fishing is tough is when you learn to be a better fisherman. It is also the perfect time to test new things on picky eaters. Nothing I tried worked better than a fresh cut herring plug, lightly salted to firm it up and kept on ice until served - to a king salmon. Coho seem to eat anything so no need to do anything special for them except let them eat it well before setting the hook.

This type of product is hard to evaluate, many factors play into Salmon fish bites for now I will continue to use until somebody fishing on the same boat start pulling in more Salmon than me. Note: gloves are a must with this fluid and I rinse any drolets off of the boat right away. The fluid will stain your hands however typically gone in two days.I use Krippled Anchovy rotary lure and need to handle the bait to get the rotation correct.

I'd never even heard of this before. Bought it for egg sacks for trout, but tried it on shiner minnows. It does indeed turn them orange. I found it faded though, way more than the chartreuse, which I bought at the same time. Pike and walleye seem to like it. Whitefish too.

BEST BRINE OUT THERE. Follow directions on back. Make sure shrimp or bait is 70-80% frozen and then throw them in quart mason jars. One Quart Recipe: now add the brine, 1/2 cup of raw sugar, 1 teaspoon of krill powder and close the jar. flip the jar every 12 hours for first 4 or 5 days. This product is enough for a 2 quart recipe. KEEP IN FRIDGE AT ALL TIMES
