It’s been while since we’ve given some well deserved credit to one of our most dependable business partners – The al mighty chum salmon. It’s been 170 days since we last showed our chums some love, and today we right that wrong.
Not only does our population of chums return dime-bright, provide non-stop action throughout the majority of our season, and fight incredibly hard.. They also occasionally take surface flies. Sort of like this healthy specimen pictured above.
They’ll be trickling in on our rivers in a matter of weeks, and needless to say, we can hardly wait!
I found chum to be extremely receptive to surface flies when worked properly. Only the brightest of sunny days will force me to a sinking fly. Wog the dog!
