Thread: Baiting Structure

This has worked for me very well. Kullis bait cubes. They're freeze dried baitfish scraps or something like that. You can check it out at Welcome to Kastaway.com

I have used pellet type sweet feed for horses , but the catfish usually move in big time.

Guys, I've used canned dog food on brush piles before (and canned cat food -- fish flavor). It is my belief that the "added attraction" doesn't actually draw crappie to the structure.. It draws "small bait fish" and plankton to the structure/attractant and that in turn draws the crappie and other game fish...

i use a five gallon bucket (with lid ) with 1/4 inch holes drilled in it everywhere full of dogfood i know it works

For a long time I have been trying to find cottonseed meal blocks but they are very hard to find these days. I finally decided to try a deer block and that seems to work pretty good. I also throw out cattle range cubes. During the summer I broadcast catfish food off my dock to feed the bluegills. I have shad and golden shinners all around my dock and I am sure the feeding is responsible.

I use the same fish food we use in the ponds for catfish, bluegill, bass, and wipers. It's the Purina Game Fish Food which has a scent attractant that game fish love. We mostly use it because it's what we have and know game fish love as well as bait fish. I only use a fist size for each new spot and it has proven it works right away for bait fish and crappie. It helps while the algae is starting.
LOL

WOULD IT LAST A FEW DAYS, A WEEK, A COUPLE OF WEEKS?? I GUESS WHAT I AM SAYING IS IF I PUT A 5 GALLON BUCKET IN THE WEEKEND WOULD IT STILL BE HIGHLY PRODUCTIVE THE NEXT WEEKEND? OR WOULD IT WORK BETTER IF IT WAS PUT IN A COUPLE OF DAYS EARLY? LIKE WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY BEFORE FISHING ON SATURDAY?
