Abstract
A chum delivery assembly for facilitating the rapid and strategic dispersement of chum along a bottom surface of a body of water in order to attract fish, the assembly including a containment member having a base, a surrounding wall surface, and an upper surface which together define an open interior chamber. The open interior chamber is structured to contain a quantity of chum therein, and a lowering line is included and structured to adjustably lower the containment member to a desired delivery location. The base of the chum delivery assembly includes a generally open configuration so as to permit the free passage of the chum therethrough from the open interior chamber, with a rigid panel being provided and disposed to selectively cover the base so as to prevent the free passage of chum through the base until desired. As such, the rigid panel is structured to be removed from a covering orientation over the base when the containment member is substantially at the delivery location such that all of the chum contained in the open interior chamber is released in a substantially concentrated manner at the delivery location.
