After mixing all those different kinds of fish and stuff I would definitely not use water from the hose. Chlorine is absolutely a fish repellent. So I'd use the water from the area I wanted to fish. Other than that it looks pretty good. I used to make chum with a sausage grinder and any fish we had available, plus menhaden oil and oats or cat food. It called up the bait and we got sharks under the boat a few times. That was a long time ago in Florida. Now I live by the Chesapeake Bay and I need to try making chum again. It might turn the pier into a good spot.
Agreed. The water is actually filtered using those in line RV filters. However, the fish love it and it had great results. Although, it's probably just as cost effective (not to mention the time savings) just just buy frozen chum
It actually wasnt too bad shopping for cheap ingredients and the cost can be driven lower by adding ground up caught bait vs canned. After buying bulk ingredients with plenty left over for future batches, this batch cost around $6-7. If you have a different method or more cost effective method, please be sure to share with me and/or post your video on the Get Aft'er It FB page @SandhillCaptain, I'm all for sharing everyone's methods!

Good job
The price he spent on all the ingredients it would have been cheaper to buy a block of chum.
You're probably right
looks like the process of making garum
I buy a block of reg.chum n add beach sand to it..with sea water n mix..
Thats really the better way to do it.
That's an expensive bucket of chum.
