I use them for Ice fishing Brook trout, I got egg sacks off ebay last year. I see Baja ss has some so I want to make my own. What do I need to make egg sacks and cure eggs?

You can buy pre cut squares of colored mailene viel(MESH CLOTH) and I tie them with magic thread. Depending on what/when you are fishing will determine the # off eggs per sac. For winter time I like 3 to 6 eggs per sac. For the fall time 5 to 8. Everybody has their preference on how many eggs per sac.

I use atlas shake and cure natural color for curing my eggs. Real simple to use and you get great looking eggs when done. Follow the directions on the jar and you can't go wrong. The eggs will keep good in the fridge for a few months and a year plus in the freezer. It can be found at Dicks and Garnder Mountian.

How much better is the SPAWNEE SPAWN BAG TIER then the MELNAK BAITMAKER, I can get the refills for the baitmake for cheap, a lot of different colors in one lot. On the other hand Spawnee look like a better and easier machine, any thoughts?
