I have made my own chum block for years now. You will either sacrifice your wife's blender or go get a cheap one. I just go out and cast net for bait or save my bait I used during a fishing trip. Also save the water you had it in (salt or fresh). Get a blender and blend it all up. Mix equal parts water and bait. Pour the mix into a piece of tupperware of any size you wish your block to be. Freeze this mix. I have a foodsaver so when it freezes I remove the mix and place the frozen block in foodsaver bag and vacum pack it. You can write on the bags and label the mix contents. These will keep for years and you will always have one ready. Works with anything you want to use as bait. I use a mesh laundry bag as a chum bag. They are cheap and allows just the right amount of bait to release. Good luck!
