I use all 3 , they all work like a charm. A piece of advise would be don’t be afraid to use big bait either.

@jerydob6499

palm size perch for flathead , supposedly they mostly eat live bait, and chicken livers for cats with rounder heads.

@kishredbird3599

Cut bait from a carp has been the winning ticket for me this last weekend

@JakeCline-l3h

We used to catch catfish with ...grape  Bubble Yum bubble gum. Chew it a little bit to soften it up and pack it around the treble hook. Worked every time.
There were big debates held over wether Bubble Yum,Hubba Bubba or Double Bubble was the best. Tried em all and it was Bubble Yum for us.

@SillySam5

For freshwater catfish I strongly suggest using shrimp or anything like shrimp! My father used shrimp in dauphin island and the catfish came ROLLING in! Hope this helps❤

@beardwierd2783

Only caught two catfish the biggest about 15lbs so far but then I live in England. Tight lines from across the pond.

@BarrettPlumbing

Crappie rig with 2 live minnows for the small ones. Raw chicken breast is my next favorite

@wolf5.0L

In South Florida Missouri minnow for channel cats is a slayer. And, if a crappie happens by… they are delicious too.

@adamspivey

Biggest flathead I ever caught was on a live bluegill.. cut bait is also great.

@briandonnalley3156

Velveeta Cheese, been using that stuff for 40 years and the bottom dwellers love it.

@Fishervick23

Different kinds like different bait. Channel catfish will eat just about anything; but I find it easier to use hot dogs or chicken liver. Blue catfish tend to like live bluegill or cut shad. Flathead love cut bluegill.

@dm364

I've had luck with partially defrosted shrimp hooked thru the shell. or mackerel same way just thru the skin, or even better marinate in blood/garlic 
yuck!
gotta love it

@BrendenKlassen

Shrimp always seem to work great!

@outdoorlifewithJason

I think live bait works better at night, and cut bait works better during the day.

@TriumphAsh

Black pudding rolled into Boilies use abit of liquid to get it all mushy then roll into balls and freeze

@destinyivy.666

Almost every single bait he said only catches small cat fish if yall want big cats only use cut bait or live bait dont ever use worms or chicken liver if your going for big cats its a 99% chance you wont catch a big cat

@davidStJuitton

All my catfish I caught--from 25 inches to 29 inches--have been caught with shelled shrimp.  I tried chicken liver, hot dogs, night crawlers, and squid--but they never looked at them.  I never tried live fish or cut fish--I wanted them to live and grow.

@damianallred3306

If you love catfishing you should try out the CATFISH SUMO BREAKAWAY SINKER SLIDER there amazing

@coreymcdonald2633

ChatGPT please make a short video about the best catfish baits to use.

Catfish Charlie “blood” dough bait is the best in our lake.

@Itsjustme17

Chicken liver with a cherry kookaid packet is the way to go. Hard to keep on the hook without getting robbed tho
