    Default Catfish Bait recipe :

    Sweet tooth Catfish Bait

    2 cups Cornmeal
    3 tbsp Sugar
    1/2 tsp Salt
    1 pkg Strawberry Gelatin
    1 tbsp Vanilla
    2 cups Water
    1 bag marshmallows


    1) - pour all ingredients into a large bowl, mixing until dissolved.
    2) - cook over a low flame, stirring constantly.
    3) - while stirring, slowly add Marshmallows.
    4) - continue until batch is sticky as glue & too thick to stir.
    5) - wrap in wax paper, clean the kitchen, then get your butt to the river.
    6) - use strong line, put on a slip sinker then tie on a stout hook.
    7) - pinch on a piece of shot ~ 12" above hook (as a stop for the slip sinker). 8) - break off a hunk of the bait & mold it fully around hook.
    9) - cast out & get ready for some hot & heavy action!

    Sounds yummy - we tried stuff like that but it attracts way to many bullheads

    I go after Bullheads more than Catfish ...

    the Channel Cats most of them up here come out of the Susky ... thou occasionally you will find them in a Pond where someone has put one

    Mike:

    If you want bullheads, put three or four earthworms on a fish finder rig with a size 1/0 bait holder hook - We can catch them all night long - slimy bastards!

    When I go after them I use nightcrawlers ... I usually give my catch to some eldery people in the area ... they are thrilled with them ....

    You get horned? I mean it's alright if you but this is not the place to talk about it. No doubt there are many forums that to your lifestyle.

    It sounds that your bait could also be used to catch carp.Have you ever caught any carp on it?

    Yes, it does sound like a carp bait recipe. Probably good for some channel catfish also!
    Fishing is a lifestyle.....Don't ever forget that!

    I do not believe that Mike (PA Bassman) ever caught carp on that recipe. He is no longer with us I am answering you based on his posts here and on other sites.
