I put them in a colander and drain as much of the water off of them as I can, cover them with a heavy coating of kosher salt, shake them around to get an even coat on them then transfer them to a large plastic bag. I place the plastic bag in the fridge for a couple of days then dump them into the colander again to drain off the liquid that has been pulled out of the minnows and rinse them to remove the salt and let them drain. I put them in the dehydrator just until they become leathery tough and then put them in a clean plastic bag and freeze. They seem to work better than golden shiners and almost as well as fresh shiners. Just keep them on ice while out fishing and then put the let overs back in the freezer when you get home.
