That's a very good point Bassman! IMO - Anyone who plans to fish this method (clam chuming) should consider circle hooks! That will decrease gut hooking (mortality) considerably!

What kinda lures AT SHINNE****?

Hello Nivekelly,

If you are planning to use lures around the Shinne**** grounds… You can't go wrong with bucktails tipped with a curly plastic -or - pork rind!

Also…during the early first light or sunset… you can cast along the shorelines with Pencil Poppers, Plastics, Swimmers and Tins such as Hopkins, Kastmaster and Charlie Graves.

In addition, don't overlook the inside marshes, bridges, piers and around the docks… At times, it can be very productive when the conditions are right!

Hi Conner Mac,

Before I could give you a detailed answer... I need to know the following:

Are you surfishing or fishing from a vessel?
(There is a difference from vertical / horizontal fishing)

Which season are you planning to fish?
( To follow the "match the hatch" theory - There are various bait throughout the season)

Daytime or night?
(Fish behave/feed differently throughout the course of the day)

Location?
(Shinne**** has many types of "structures"… Inlets, marshes, cuts, drop-offs, rips - and each area may require a different approach).

So, the more specific you can be… the more I will be able to assist you.

Tight Lines,
