If you live in PA, there are many opportunities for you to catch chromies. If you invest even a fraction of the passion that you have poured into that car of yours into catching chrome steel, silver, and king you will put many of us to shame and have, as they say "Great Success!".

The Great PP Chum Wars continue to wage (surely you've noticed if you are a "regular" here). You have (perhaps) unknowingly alligned yourself on one side of the "playing field" by posting pictures of Chums at all, much less ones that are close to spawning. You have just discovered WHY many of us do not target the Chum: they are dark/ turn dark quickly, and they do not have quality meat (ok Dave V, they SOMETIMES do, but not very often). Even if you don't eat them, why not target a better fight like a big king or steelhead?

Thank you for sharing the pics and story about your adventure. You live in prime country to drive fast on curvy roads... and to catch big shiny fish whos pictures will impress friends and strangers,

Good Luck
