Catching sardines

Since taking up fishing as a hobby, I have only caught sardines once at Haulover park near the bait shop. Me and a couple friends chummed the water with cut up finger mullet and caught about a bucket full of sardines. The cost of buying finger mullet to chum the waters to catch sardines every time we go fishing[ 2 to 3 times a week] can slowly but surely take a toll on your wallet.
Is there an alternative I can use to attract bait fish to catch on a sabiki?

Avoid rough bottoms but lots o guys cast net from shore for more than just sardines. Check out the mullet run.

the dines you caught had nothing to do with the finger mullet chunks you were tossing out
you wont really catch dines till around winter time
