I have tried a few things regarding treating Emerald Shiners for perch fishing in summer when it's tough to get live ones. Salting then freezing makes a huge mess in my boat when I use them and we all know salt everywhere in a boat isn't a good thing. Online I read about some using borax with brine...trying that with some now and I purchased some green Fire Brine....last time I used it, the minnows almost disintegrated when thawed out. Anyone have suggestions would be appreciated. Of course I freeze them after treated.
