**Sportfishing Techniques and Tips**

- Chumming and Live Bait: Chumming with ground fish or sardines can be highly effective at Tanner Bank. The rich scent trail will attract a variety of game fish, and using live bait such as sardines, mackerel, or anchovies can further increase your chances of hooking a trophy.
