Preparing Blackberry Bushes for Winter

What can I do for my blackberry bushes in the fall to get them ready for the winter season? I’ve had them for a couple of years and want to know what I might do to get more fruit from them next season. I really haven’t done anything to them, but every year they give me more fruit! Should I weed the dead sticks out before fall? Should I weed them clean before winter? Any help in this subject would be helpful, since my wife thinks she knows better!
