That should last a few trips.  Can you share your ingredients?   TT^

blended up clam bellies,white rice, dog food,bunker oil .not much to making your own chum .I cant see buying it for 3-4 dollars a log when you can make it for a couple cents each .I got about 100 cups and put out 26 dollars,I like to bring 15 a trip so I dont have to worry about running out all day .

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember hearing a while back that using corn was bad for the Flounder.

Something about them being unable to digest it?

It clogs up their digestive tract and kills them.

Ummmm, does it matter if the founder digest it or not.  All that would really matter is if YOU can digest the flounder.   ;D

Almost forgot.  Thanks for the recipe.   t^

Nice job on the chum!  I'd like to make some but if my wife caught me using her blender - I'd be the chum!  Is that what it generally costs - $3-$4 bucks?  What type of worms are you digging?

Flounder will not die from corn they can crap mussels shells out themselves.. maybe with other species like trout but i doubt flounder will have a problem

plus after they eat the corn we catch em t^
