Maize is my go to bait, mainly because its the right price.
I've caught on the following flavors of maize:
Sugar and salt Cherry Vanilla Strawberry Chili Spicy Strawberry Banana
I like using the extra water from my maize in my method mix and put some of it in my method too.
PB Buff - 56lbs PB Common - 26lbs PB Mirror - 7lbs PB Grasser - 45lbs PB Koi - 10lbs

I think clam would attract too many catfish and turtles, but it just might work.
I have the most luck on Maize salted heavily with table and rock salt and sugared heavily(like turn the top of the bag white heavily) and also maize just salted heavily. I've done really good on tuity fruity maize(my PB float common came on tuity fruity maize) and pineapple maize(PB buff at Texoma) also. Vanilla works great for buffalo and also Rumvanana (rum, vanilla, and banana) has gotten me a few fish, mostly buffs but a few carp. Experiment and you'll find out a lot

Ted - anise is one of the best all round flavours you'll ever try. I've caught an awful lot of Carp with anise somewhere in the mix - bait. method etc. I have a plastic pill bottle with plastic baits steeped in anise extract - and a glass jar with maize steeped in anise oil (the oil melts plastic!!) It's caught fish for me - when nothing else worked - and I always have it with me. It also works year round.

I've had 'flirtations' with Garlic a few times --- and caught on it. My problem is - I hate the smell!! My best success was using Garlic Bread seasoning mix in a Panko based method/pack mix ---- they went crazy for it!! In warmer water - good quality Garlic Oil works well in plain (no other flavours) method/pack mixes. Good luck
