Abstract:
1. A device for holding a bucket of chum submerged in water, comprising: a) a cylindrical containing component having a lower edge and an upper edge; b) a circular bottom component being permanently attached to said lower edge of said cylindrical containing component; c) a toroidal sleeve being fixedly located near said upper edge of said cylindrical containing component; d) a drawstring cooperating with said upper edge of said cylindrical containing component and pulling said upper edge closed for captivating the bucket of chum held within said device; and e) a welting having edges; wherein said cylindrical containing component is fabricated out of sheet material; wherein said sheet material is rectangular and has an upper edge, a lower edge, and two side edges; wherein said upper edge of said sheet material is said upper edge of said cylindrical containing component; wherein said lower edge of said sheet material is said lower edge of said cylindrical containing component; wherein said sheet material has two side edges that are stitched together; wherein said sheet material has a first plurality of orifices therein for permitting chum matter to passthrough; wherein said sheet material has a second plurality of orifices inline therein for cooperating with said drawstring that is threaded therethrough; wherein said sheet material has a longitudinal area extending between said first plurality of orifices and said second plurality of orifices, that fabricates said toroidal sleeve, and has a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge; wherein said toroidal sleeve is fabricated by attaching said first longitudinal edge of said longitudinal area and said second longitudinal edge of said longitudinal area together; wherein said sheet material is flexible plastic material; wherein said circular bottom component is fabricated out of a second sheet material having at least one orifice therein for permitting the chum matter to pass through; wherein said circular bottom component has a circumference and is permanently attached by stitching near said circumference thereof and near said lower edge of said cylindrical containing component; wherein said edges of said welting are sewn in between said circumference of said circular bottom component and said lower edge of said cylindrical containing component; and wherein said second sheet material is flexible plastic material.
