Looking for stories on Christmas Island, where a friend will be fishing in three weeks, I came across this little story about Christmas Island on, of all places, the ESPN.com site. Worth a read to wet your Christmas appetite. Story by Bill Becher.

Hi guys,
Was quite disturbed too here that some of the lodges on Christmas were chuming.
Was there in late Febuary this year. The bone fish and Trevally fishing was outstanding.
Largest GT caught was a 50+ brute that took over an our to land.
All fish were caught Clean. NO CHUMMING .
Will be there again in Feb. 2015. Will put the word out that most of us Fly guys are
not happy too here about the chumming.
Thanks for bringing this up.
