Hit the Sultan boat launch at first light and headed up river near the mouth of the Wallace. First cast of the morning and my buddy lands a nice bright silver. The rest of the day was consistent lights out fishing. Massive chum, dollys and whitefish. We tossed bobber and jigs, backtrolled plugs and side drifted yarn balls. Pink/purple jigs tipped with prawn were the golden ticket. 20+ fish landed and 6 kept. Great day on the water with an awesome group of guys.

Just got done smoking another batch of CHUM. I use food-coloring to trick people who are "too cool for Chum" - Most cannot tell the difference when done right(the couple drops of food-color fools the best of 'em!). Baking and grilling is better than junk from grocery store too! ENJOY!

I accept your challenge. I will pit your chum against any smoked coho, sockeye or king and I with 99% accuracy will tell you which is chum. Take the bake or BBQ challenge and I will bump that up to 100%. Why are people too cool for chum? That sad if anyone things chum are weak, they are rad. I think they are easily one of my favorite fish to catch.
