  • Patent number: 5720124
    Abstract: A device for attracting fish by chumming which when filled with whole bait and manually reciprocatingly agitated overboard causes the bait to be cut to create a chum slick. An elongated rigid tubular body defining an inner chamber for receiving whole bait is provided further having a plurality of perforations which allow diffusion of resulting chum. An enlarged side port opening with removable plug is provided for loading the whole bait into the chamber. Rigid first and second plugs are removably inserted into each open end of the tubular body and each defines a through bore. Each such bore is disposed along the same axis for passage of an elongated rigid shaft. The shaft has a first end portion and neck extending a predetermined length beyond the first plug and terminating in an elongated handle portion for grasping; the shaft also extends beyond the second plug. The shaft is limited in reciprocal travel through both bores by a pair of stop members disposed on the shaft.
