I recently went catfishing and stopped and bought my usual lewis king punch bait. ive never had a problem with it in the past. this time when I got to my spot and when to dip my trebles in it, it wouldn't stick at all. it was soft and seemed like it had water or something in it. I went on to the house and threw it in the freezer for the next mornings trip. when I got up it was frozen. by the time I got to the lake it had thawed and wasn't sticking again. granted I could go to lewis since I live right up the road from him, but Id like to see if theres something I could do to help myself. thank you in advance.

Cat tails if you have them. Non allergenic pillow fill if you don't or mix some cj's in with it

Just put a gob in your mouth and suck the juice out of it like you would chewing tobacco. Spit or swallow the excess moisture at your discretion. And there ya go!

I have been using Danny kings, sudden impact and cj's for the last couple of months. Haven't had any problems with cj's. I actually put some in the dk to stiffen it up when it got hot. Just bought five gallons of cj's if that says anything!

throw Lewis King bait away and go to Danny Kings Punch Bait. Danny King back his word if it dont stay on the hook.
