So what is the funkiest bait you've had luck catching
Cat"s with?

Wheaties,Big Red,and flour rolled into balls ...Also weenies marinated in Strawberry Cool-Aid and garlic, cut into 1 in squares and frozen so they can stay on the hook! Only brought in channels!!!

Bacon.

i have caught a number of nice cats on tenderloin grizzle/fat ----it stays on the hook really well. dip in garlic sauce over night and good bait!

deer liver on a trot line. Caught several channel cats. My aunt told me once that deer liver was the best she ever ate. I thought it sucked and hated to throw it away. Thats when I thought hmmmm... would it work?

Deer is a game animal, and no part of a game animal may be used for bait in Texas. Just fyi so you don't get in trouble.

Bowfin. Blues liked it.

I had a buddy catch one on a grape one time lol

One night fishing on the wichita river, we had a water snake come in to our lantern. I whacked it with a stick and since we were about out of bait, I cut about a 2" piece off of it and hooked on wacky worm style. Within 5 minutes of casting it out, caught about a 7-8lb blue.

peanut butter sandwich

A used tampon. Work great for them big blues.

Road kill Rabbit entrails, the older the better.

That is disgusting.

Pickles... was eating a sandwish while fishing.. pickle dropped and I threw it in the water. While cleaning fish... found a pickle in a channels stomach... so I tried pickles for bait!!! It work but my stink bait worked better; )

a piece of paper from the bottom of a chicken breast container. caught a 4 lb channel out of a little community pond.
