Avoid float fishing jigs, fly fishing with pink, purple and chartreuse flies and using techniques that can floss fish. Bycatch will still happen from time to time but these are the ways people actively fish FOR chum.

Agree with Colin purple and/or chartreuse when fly fishing definitely makes a difference.  For me pink not so much.

I went for a walk along Peach Creek (between Peach Road and Lickman Road) this afternoon, and there were at least ten times more chum salmon digging redds in it compared to a week ago right before the river came up.
