Compiled by Christopher KogaFor the tribe atReadyTribe.com
Catfish Bait Recipe #1:
Father’s Recipe
1 1/2 c. Livers (Chicken, Deer, Cow, whatever you have)
1/4 c. Flour2-3 T. Garlic Salt
1 Sardine & 2 T. Sardine Oil (from the can)
2 tsp Strawberry Jello1 egg
You should blend the liver until it becomes a liquid, then empty it into a clean PLASTIC peanut butter jar
and add the remaining ingredients. Stir well until thick. Cover.
Do NOT open indoors. You should allow the bait to sit for at least
forty-eight hours. Remember, the rawer, the better.
Catfish Bait Recipe #2:
Catfish Melange• STEP 1: Melt 1 pound of cheese (I like to
use Velveta).
• STEP 2: Chop up 6 or 8 ounces of chicken liver and add it to the melted cheeze.
• STEP 3: Add a spoonful of garlic powder, and mix in 1 can of wet dog food... plus about 12 minnows and some flour.
• STEP 4: Mix it up in a blender or food processor, put a bit on the end of your hook, and hold on!
Catfish Bait Recipe #3:
Catfish Stink Bait Recipe
2 Cans Tuna in Oil
2 Cans Sardines in Mustard
½ lb. Chicken Livers
2 Boxes Stuffing Mix
1 Bag Stuffing Bread
Mix tuna, sardines and chicken livers in a sealable container. Seal and set outside for a week. Remember
to place in a secure, raccoon proof location. A week later, outside, mix in stuffing mix and stuffing bread
until a thick dough like consistency is reached. Be sure to use a utensil you will not need in the future or stick
to stir mixture.
Catfish Bait Recipe #4: Cajun
Catfish BaitSTEP 1: Mix 1 pound of rotten minnows, ½ cup water, ½ cup parmesean cheese, 1 box of jello
(cherry is good), 1/4 cup molasses, 3 tablespoons of onion salt, 3 tablespoons of garlic salt, 1 cup of bread crumbs, and 3 tablesppons
of soy sauce... all in a blender!
STEP 2: Once it's mixed, put it in a big bowl.
STEP 3: Add flour to it, and work it into a big stinky batch of dough.
STEP 4: Grab a small chunk of the stuff, put it on a #4 treble hook, and drop it down for instant
catfish strikes.
Catfish Bait Recipe #5: Lye Soap Catfish Bait Recipe
2 lb. Lard
4.4 oz. Lye (handle with care)
7 oz. Water
While outside or in a well-ventilated area, put the water in a glass bowl and
slowly pour in the lye, letting it dissolve. The mixture will heat up as
the lye reacts to the water. Let cool till the temperature reaches around 85
degrees. Melt lard and bring the temperature to 90 degrees. Slowly
pour the dissolved lye into the lard as you continue to stir. Stir the mixture
until it reaches the consistency of thick gravy. Pour into ice cube trays and let set for three days. Cubes should set
and able to slide a hook through.
You may have some reservations about using lye in your homemade catfish bait, but it is very effective.
Catfish Bait Recipe #6: Old
Man LiverSTEP 1: Blend up about a pound of chicken liver, a half box of corn flakes, a half cup of garlic powder, one third a cup of parmesan
cheese, molasses, and sugar.
STEP 2: When it's mixed, put it in some small dishes...then put whatever you're not going to use in a freezer. Of course it works
better if "served" to the catfish fresh.
STEP 3: Add some flour to thicken enough so it will stay on a hook.
Catfish Bait Recipe #7:

4 Cups Wheaties Cereal
1 lb. Hamburgar
½ Cup Parmesan Cheese
1 Tablespoon Garlic

a doughy consistency.
Catfish Bait Recipe #9: Liver Loaf Catfish Bait

¼ Cup Dark Molasses
Cut the chicken livers into small pieces. Combine molasses and chicken livers into large bowl, adding
bread after. Smush together with hands until all ingredients are combined and a formable consistency.

Catfish Bait Recipe #8:
Chicken 'n' Beer Baiter
What you'll need:
* 3 cups of corn meal* 3 cups of flour
* 2 cups of oatmeal* 1 full can of beer (the older, the
better!)* 12 "ripe" minnows, shad, or small
tuna (the more oily the better!)* 10 ounces of corn syrup
* A bunch of chicken livers, shrimp. cat food, etc... (whatever else you want to add to "spice" things up!)
* 1 big container to hold everything
STEP 1: Mix it all together to a consistency like peanut butter. (Add
milk or beer to get it to the right consistency.)
STEP 2: Seal the container and let it sit for 2-3 weeks outside...it's all
going to rot... BAD. If it thickens up too much, spray with WD-40 and mix
it again.
Catfish Bait Recipe #11: Meat and
Cheese Catfish Bait Recipe
1 lb. Uncooked Ground Meat (beef, turkey, deer, etc.)
1 Cup Velveta Cheese or American Cheese Slices
1 Tablespoon Garlic (preferably minced)
Flour
Melt cheese until soft. Combine with meat and garlic and mix until cheese is evenly
distributed. Slowly add flour to mixture until you reach a play-dough like consistency. Form
into balls. Keeps well in a plastic bag in the freezer.
Catfish Bait Recipe #10:
"Clean" Catfish Bait
What you'll need:
* A few bars of ivory soap* a half cup of sugar* a half cup of water
* 2 or 3 plastic ice trays
STEP 1: Mix the water and sugar in a small pot and dissolve it.
STEP 2: Use a grater to shave some soap into the mixture and heat it all over a low fire. Stir
until all the soap is melted.
STEP 3: Use a spoon and fill the ice trays with the soapy/sweet mixture.
STEP 4: Let the soapy mixture in the ice trays cool for just a few minutes, just until it starts to
solidfy again. Do NOT let it get too solid, or it will break.
STEP 5: Remove the cubes, cut then into smaller bait-size chunks. (remember, don't let it harden
all the way or this will be impossible!)
STEP 6: Place the cubes into an air tight container... when ready, put them on single or
trable hooks and fish!
Now...if you want to keep things simple just use chunks of Velveta cheese... or some sort of
meaty dog food. Another way is to use chunks of hot dog, put 'em in a jar and cover them with
fish oil and minced garlic.
