Chumming it up
I do not fish from a boat and have questions about effective chumming. I fish rocky areas with deep drop-offs and in the past have tossed an occasion handful of herring chunks out in hopes that it will attract fish. I witnessed one guy who filled a plastic two-liter bottle with chum, put some puncture holes in it and tie a rope to it, letting it bob around in the surf. I live within a minute of a herring processing plant so I have an unlimited supply of fresh herring.
What tecniques do you folks use for chumming?
What killer chum recipe have you concocted that you are willing to share?
Is it feasable to use chum to attract fish while using plugs to catch them?
How much is too much chum?
How do you keep the flying rats (gulls) from slurping up all your chum before it becomes effective?
Thanks for any chum-related info!
