Now you guys are thinking! Sure herring and other chum will work just fine, however what do you offer them to get them to eat? Does size matter? Study the report. I agree, it's the wiggle and waggle, it's all about action when it comes to getting them to strike...and YES we can certainly learn a lot from our sweet water bass masters.
Moses, No I didn't suggest using chic lobsters -- it might be hard to explain to the warden that you actually bought them...I had mentioned that in the old days they use to put lobbies on the hook...in fact I dug up a great story from the achieves of the Cuttyhunk Historical Society that recounted the dialogue between a couple of Gay Head anglers that were bitchin about getting ripped off by a local Wampanoag that had the audacity to charge them a $1.00 for a 100 lobsters (granted it was the 1800's but the guy probably owned a railroad).
So what do we use as lures when they're on herring, crabs, squid, etc.? Does it matter that we try to match the hatch?
