Looking for info on fishing chums in area 11. I currently have my 28 in the water at Browns point and looking to possible bang a few before weather shuts us it completely. Any info much appreciated!

if you're willing to run up by bremerton, the chum should showing in the bay chico creek feeds into. or maybe the salt nearby minter over by purdy.
i dont have much info on saltwater chums besides that. hope it helps some.

I heard of guys anchoring and drifting sardines under a float in the salt for chum. Sounds like a great time. If anyone would be willing to give a little information on the subject, that would be great! If you don't want too broadcast, then a PM would work. Sure would like to give that a try.

Don't know much about it myself, but here is a video Mike posted a while back.

I'm going to try the Sardine under a float tactic for the first time this November in Chico Bay. I'm pretty stoked about it.....seems like a fund way to catch them. They should be arriving soon!

i was raised in bremerton and fished chico creek for many years. ive done really well with sardines/herring under a float, buzzbombs, spoons, jigs, and even wet flys. in the past years i usually go around this time until mid to end of nov. a jig under a float with scent works well too. if you want to go fish chico creek send me a message im planning to go out on a trip to visit my parents (grab my smoker) and fish.

I know Chico but unfortunately I'm using my 28 ft boat and fuel would sting a bit to get there and my dads physical limitations prevent me from taking him anywhere where we would normally wear waders. I'm in Browns point area .

The Minter Creek run might be your best bet.

It's tough when you just wanna use your boat! The upside is the amenities in a large boat, hot coffe, heat, bathroom, warm food, the downside is how tough it is to manage a28 foot boat in shallow water with outgoing tides. May have to leave the boat at the slip and do some foot work!
