The present invention provides a chum dispenser that could be used to dispense chum under water and at desired depth. The chum dispenser allows dispensing the chum in a concentrated area under the water, which is desired for luring fish. The chum dispenser comprises a container with a snap-fit lid. The container is further coupled to the lid through a rigid line such that the container and lid are movable with respect to each other in open state and the container could turn over to dispense the chum. The dispenser is suspended through a flexible line, which could be jerked by hand to open the lid of dispenser and dispense the chum in water.
