Chumming for Stripers
Report
Fishing with light tackle and chumming offers the opportunity to catch fish of all sizes without heavy trolling gear, learning tackle handling techniques or extended trolling time. One of the most effective ways to fish for striped bass is by chumming with cut bait and chum to attract fish.
Chumming allows light tackle fishing easy for the novice fisherman who wants to enjoy Striper fishing without using heavier trolling rigs or hours of learning jigging techniques.Try to anchor up tide where your chum will flow down tide to where the fish will be drawn to your boat. Try to disperse the chum into the water so the stream of chum or cut bait falls directly into your set lines.
