This releases more natural oils and scent into the water and can increase your chances of attracting feeding fish such as bass and smoothhound. How to Fish King Prawns for Sea Fishing King prawns can be fished whole on a single hook or cut into smaller strips depending on the target species. Many anglers fish prawns on pulley rigs or running ledger rigs when targeting bass, cod and rays from the shore. For smoothhound and larger predators, fishing a whole prawn secured with bait elastic helps keep the bait firmly on the hook during longer casts. Prawns also work extremely well in bait cocktails. Combining prawns with squid, sandeels or lugworm creates a powerful scent trail that helps attract feeding fish. Storage and Handling Keep frozen until required.
