What is good bait for catfish?

Question

Tonight I plan on catfishing.

What I have used and worked: Nightcrawlers, bologna, hot dogs, smaller fish

Answer 1

Believe it or not corn.

they love it.

Mix it with the canned biscuit stuff and they will go crazy for it

Answer 2

Your hands. Try noodling :) Seriously though, shad, chicken livers, stink bait, night crawlers, and crawfish

Answer 3

I've always had the best luck threading chicken livers into a treble hook. And you don't have to go to the bait shop, just the local supermarket.

Fish on!

Answer 4

i've heard over and over that hot dogs work, however when i went fishing with my friend out in colorado, we tried using hot dogs the whole day and caught nothing. try maybe using hot dogs and add some non glitter bait in addition. also try using salmon eggs, the little red balls, because those attract fish a lot.  i also use corn too! however that attracts other fish like trout. i would definitly try canned corn though, it works for me :) good luck!

Answer 5

a cat

Answer 6

use the shiny type of hook that move alot in water it works every time trust me.
