Chumming? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Riskey Water · 11-09-2010, 10:20 AM

I did the chum only once with a 4" PVC 12 " long , drilled with holes loaded up with mackeral on a 10' rope tied to a bouy thinking more about seals than sharks ,didn't want to tie it to the yak because of capsizing .30 mins later it took off like a frieght train then disappearred .Two days later it washed up on my beached chewed up with 3 shark teeth still stuck in the plastic !!! This was down in Mex 15 miles north of Ensenada 4 years ago .You can chum but you never know who you might invite to dinner .

It works great if you want to catch Mr. T...

All youll do is catch alot of Threshers... not a good idea imo

Copy the great advice. I thought about the seals but forgot about the tax man! Guess I will stick to dragging those macs around in oil free areas! Appreciate the advice!
