Best bait of all for Cats and Bullheads
 
Ive tried livers, blood baits, cheese baits, etc... But nothing seems to
catch cats better then crawfish or nightcrawlers.

Is this true for everyone ?

bloodbaits and nightcrawlers have worked best for me in the pond I
usually fish in. I've only tried livers once and caught one. No one
else caught any that night. I want to try livers again. A lot of
people have had luck locally with livers and in this group. Never had
any luck at all with cheese bait, Haven't tried crawfish. Have heard
of folks using them. Maybe I'll try them too!

Oddly enough, at the pond I go to for Cats, the bait of choice is Hot
Dogs...No Joke.
I do have good luck with my "Frozen Fresh Dead" Shrimp. Both work great,
although they will usually bite on the dog first.

Robert,
It is true for me. I have caught cats on the various things you mentioned,
plus different doughball mixtures. But for me nothing works as well or is as
consistent as Nightcrawlers.

Fish On!

FISH CONTROL MY BRAIN!!!!
