I had similar comments upon seeing this product. But, I now keep an open mind because I cannot tell you how many times I have held these stereotypes/judgements before, and I would have missed out. Mainly lures, my goodness, I look at a lure and always say "you gotta be kidding me" and the lure later turns out to a favorite.

I saw the Fish N Chum and I kept an open mind on it's uses. The first thing that popped in my mind was Lake of the Woods with my friends on an annual trip in a sleeper house. Last year we learned that if you were not jigging, sometimes aggressively, you were not going to catch diddly. We were jigging 2 rods at the same time, sometimes with only one hand. That was some work and after awhile my arms got tired. Wait til this year when my friends see this. I have at least one hand always free to hold a beverage without worries. grin.gif

River fishing for cats would be sweet!! No more ramming rods into the mud banks. Just sit back in a chair and do whatever with the rod right on you.

I'll have to report more uses after I get this unit. smirk.gif

That paints a funny picture in my head.

A good old boy asleep on the bank of the river with a beer spilling on to his dirty t-tshirt.The line goes tight...TWANK!!, Off goes Bubba into the river with his pole still attached to his leg!

I can say this...The Fish-n-Chum would be way better than a string tied to your toe! grin.gif

    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
