Uh huh. When I go out on the fishing boats in the Gulf, the captain
might chum if there aren't any fish biting. Usually, he can find them
pretty well on the electronic fish finder and they are ready to eat our
bait so we don't need to chum. It's not a practice I have seen a lot of,
but I have seen it. It kind of seems a little unsportsman like to me.
