Catfish, Perch and Slab sauce!
Well, after using slab sauce all kinds of ways. I have found its True potential!
CATFISH!
I found that injecting slab sauce into a perch's gut sack area DRAMATICLY improves my catfish hookups!
What I do is catch Live perch aprox 3-6", Use a ice pick to poke a hole into his belly, Carefull not to injure his internal organs.
Then inject him with slab sauce. till it runs out of him if he moves.
Then fish him Live. As he swims around he leaves a scent trail, when he is bit he oozes sauce. He will swim like this for a very long time!
Or Beat him up with a screw driver handle till he's all busted up and just twitching, this bloodies up the meat and allows the slab sauce to spread around inside him.
Then cut him into 7 parts. Tail, 4 mid sections, 2 upper and 2 lower, then cut the head from above eye to lower gill.
Once cut, put unused parts in a baggie with some slab sauce in it. this keeps the bait fresh and does not dry out. Perfect if your bobber fishing.
This has been BYFAR the best bait combo I have ever used!
Catfish, Gar, Bowfin, Will bite and NEVER let go!
It has dbl'd my landing ratio over plain perch!
I have started maronating my cut bream in slab sauce as well, then freezing them for later use. Its results are yet to be determined. I will be going out tonight to try it for the first time.
So Bravo! You have made one of the best catfish baits avalible and didnt even know it.
