Respect for answering all of the 1000+ comments. I'm assuming you answered all of them because my thumb got tired scrolling down so I never got to the end. Get yourself a meat grinder and grind up all your fish scraps and freeze them in manageable blocks for chumming. A Teflon bread pan works great. After they're frozen just store in cheap old school freezer bags with twist ties. A mesh laundry bag with a draw string (for lady's delicates) works good as a chum bag.

There is a restaurant over the water in Antioch, California, and between it and the shore, only 8 feet, I think they were dropping fish parts, because you could catch the biggest fish in that spot. Almost funny to see people bring up one as big as a 4th grade kid in size. Now I live in northern Italy and here they catch some HUGE fish in the rivers that empty into the Adriatic Sea.

Much love Coop. I watched some of the stream but my connection crapped out. Stay positive brother. Just a quick tip: use a cheap dollar store mesh laundry bag for chumming. Easy to replace and super cheap. Chumming works on even lousy days though. When the ecosystem isn't in your favor, create your own. Would love to fish with you someday.

[@ThresherFishing]

For sure. I just grabbed something I had around the house.

Awesome video man! Gotta do what works and that chumming seemed to work. I agree releasing reds in shallow water can get them acting funky. I did enjoy seeing all the tackle on your dashboard.

Fished West Bay in Galveston and it was trout all damn day on live shrimp ended up leaving with the limit. Till that day I had never caught a 20+" trout and it was a great time. It was made better as I waited on my friend to finish off his last few shrimp I decided to throw a Saltwater Assassin 5" chicken on a chain on a weedless weighted hook. I ran and popped it along the bottom to get slammed by a 27" spec. That was my 5th and final fish of the day. Keep up the videos they're good info and well made. Maybe I'll see you down in Port A one day.

[@ThresherFishing]

Nice 27 is a nice one. Never fished up there before.

[@bwcok7947]

How bout a little mash potato action with your chum? Try a meat grinder on your recipe first at home and then freeze your concoction in containers at the size you need to be able to fit it into your bag. As it thaws and a little wave action comes along, you will have a perfect slick! It is fun to make up your recipe. With some observant practice you will find the right blend! The fish will tell you what they like. Tight lines and keep on fishing! Stay safe and healthy!
