Another Stinky Catfish Bait



Author: Daniel Eggertsen

Catfish is one of the oldest and most sought after species of fish around. Fishermen have been reeling them in for centuries. Anglers love to go catfish fishing for two main reasons. One is the great taste that this species has to offer. Many people believe that there is nothing better to go on the dinner table than a catfish filet. They are simply delicious; there is no other way to put it. The other reason is because a catfish will surly give you a run for your money. They will put up a fight and you better be ready for it. If you don't have the proper equipment you will probably be talking about the one that got away instead of the great catch you brought home. Make sure you have a good study fishing rod and a reel with a good drag. You also want to have a variety of sharp hooks and extra gear available at all times. Sometimes when the catfish are really aggressive and very large they have a tendency of breaking lines and even fishing poles. As any good angler knows the bait that you use is the key to catching catfish. You have to get their attention before you can even begin to try and catch them. It is believed that the best way to do this is by using bait with a strong smell. In fact, many old-time anglers wouldn't use anything else and for good reason. The catfish is best-known for its keen sense of smell. Anything with a strong smell will draw the catfish to it. This is why anglers use stink baits when they go fishing for the catfish. Cheese is a main ingredient that is used in catfish bait along with anything else that has a strong odor. Many anglers make up their own recipes and experiment to see which ones work the best. Still there is one recipe that has withstood the test of time and that one is chum bait. Chum Bait The oldest and most well-known stinky catfish bait recipe is chum bait. It is very popular because it really works to help you reel in the catfish like never before. To make chum bait you need to have a bucket for mixing everything together and a main ingredient. The main ingredient that you use could be any type of baitfish such as shad, mullet or shrimp. Chop this up into small pieces and place it in the bucket. Now you need to add bay or surf water to the bucket and grind it all up. After you grind the mixture up you need to take small portions and put them in a freezer bag and place this in your freezer. When you go fishing you put a bag of chum bait in the water where it will thaw out. As the bait is thawing the smell will be released into the water. This will bring all the catfish in the area swimming in your direction just to get a taste of this bait. Now all you have to do is start reeling them in.
