Since the Carp question turned into a thread about what you can catch with
what, figured Id start a string just for that. Here, I would like to ask the
question "What baits have you used to catch fish?". The type of bait and
fish is what I am asking. We will get the standards out of the way first.

Worms-Anything
Liver-Catfish
Cutbait-Catfish, Blue, Shark, Eel
Doughballs-Carp
Corn-Carp
Salmon Eggs-Trout
Shad, Bloodbait, Stinkbait, Cheeseballs-Catfish
Minnow's (Live and Dead) Catfish, Bass, Crappy
Powerbait (With lures)-Bass


Just a start, please add yours to the list.

Powerbait, mini-marshmallow shaped - rainbow trout
Commercial stinkbait (powerbait, Nitro, etc.) - never caught anything
but they seem to draw bullhead. I.e., try these for about 15 min-1/2
hour then catch bullhead like crazy.
Berkley Gulp nightcrawlers - bass, bullhead, pumpkinseed. They seem to
work either really well or not at all, depends on the day.
