Back in my freshwater days, there was a guy near my home that sold grass shrimp out of his garage and man were they killer on the cape for smallmouth and perch. I'd anchor up in a spot that used to produce every year, put a handful in a paper bag with a rock, twist the top just enough to slow the release of the live chum once on the bottom. It was a fun way to kill a cold winter day and the cape usually only iced up briefly on the larger bodies, like long pond in Harwich my go to.
