chum?

[Thefisherman83]

I bet those kick ass 

Enough of the tread jacking back to the dogs.  I think they are funner than chit to catch, but will not take them home.  I can usually find something a little better for table fare, but thats just my humble opinion.

Sorry guys I don't do that vegetarian (fly fishing) thing 

I usally don't either in fact the two fly rods I have are the least used Sage rods I have out of the 5! I have two Steelhead drift rods a 286 & 386 and a 7'4 spinning rod that all have been abused over the years ... the fly rods look brand new

Too bad the chum aren't that RED. I've caught them and had them look pretty pink but never that red, that looks like silvers

If those are chum they have been brined in red Bad Azz bait dye.

Well it's amazing what a little food coloring will do for the eye appeal.

If something looks good it will taste better than if it dosn't look good.

No thanks you can have them all ... I wouldn't feed a Chum to my dog!!!

Im sooo confused by this thread...

Ive never seen anyone actually mad at a type of fish...lol  chums, pinks, who cares...  catch em all...eat em..dont even... who gives a rats arse?

I would be happy to catch em all...  early this summer I went fishin with Tmike and we caught a lot of pinks and he tossed em all back...wouldnt even check em before hand..pink = toss em..   almost seemed mad to catch em...  I didnt argue because he knows way more than me...  sure was fun fightin em

Later, my buddy went fishing and caught limits of pinks for days and I ended up with like 15 pounds...Ive eaten several of them and guess what...tastes fine to me

Chums??  Id try it...  might like it...  might not...   might rather have a silver or a king or whatever...

maybe Im a different type of fisherman...  if the gold fish in my 55 gal tank get just a lil bigger Im gonna stretch some 2 lb test on my G Loomis Steelhead series rod and shimano curado and tear em up...

may or may not eat em

ps- I hate fishing compared to hunting!

also....   when is it good to fish the Nisqually for chums?  pinks?  whatever?   I live in Lacey and Id like a nice local spot...  Ill even do a lil combat fishin if need be

[Houndhunter]

gona hit my spot tonight, should be full of them. LTL i know you and catwithboost are close to me, you guys wanna do a lil night fishin for chum sometime let me know

[Broken Arrow]

never had so much fun...tank bridge...Fort Lewis....lb. for lb....bestr fighting fish out there!

[WAcoueshunter]

I'm with Tat - I'll fish for anything, anytime...pinks, dogs, carp, turtles, whatever.  I won't eat all of it, but I'll gladly catch it.

As for the Nisqually chums, that's a later run that most.  I think it gets into high gear in December.  I used to duck hunt down there a lot, and there would still be chrome bright chums coming in at the end of December and into January.

I keep one or two a season, no darker than this one.  Bleed, & ice immediately, grill the same day and they aren’t too bad.  I don’t like them smoked though. 

[Houndhunter]

i like em brite, have to keep this place more of a secret

[Broken Arrow]

looks like chum heaven with all the fluffy clouds!

[LongTatLaw]

Hound...

Ill pm u my cell...dont want all these tail chasin stalkers to have my info
