Chum For Crappie

[TwainGang]

I've chummed with some magical mystery dust I make myself- give the idea from someone on this board. I keep forgetting the magical words to say when throwing it out in the water though. It is an old-timers trick using something almost everyone keeps in their kitchen and usually throws away. I've been sworn to secrecy though- but it isn't a "food" for the fish per-se.

Sounds like them trained minners I had last year. Let em out in the morning, they herd in the slabs, then hide in the brush I have down there and I feedem again..forgot to feed them all winter, guess I need to go out and train some more.:D

This is an eight-year-old thread. That's almost the record.

Chumming can work but best for Catfish.

Chumming works on all fish but check laws to make sure it is legal in your state. I don't think it is legal in my state. I have also heard of people hanging roadkill in a tree or bush over the water. After the flies lay their eggs and the maggots start to fall it's a natural smorgasbord for the fish and the fisherman.

As long as you don't get down wind.
