Homemade Bait Recipe for Channel Catfish

Homemade Bait Recipe for Channel Catfishthumbnail
Catfish are bottom feeders that are attracted to foul smelling baits.

When fishing for channel catfish there is no need to go to the store to buy bait. Catfish are usually attracted to the most foul smelling foods that people would normally throw out. Instead of throwing the meat out, save it and make bait for the next time you go fishing for channel catfish. It will save you money and possibly work even better than the channel catfish bait you would be paying money for at the store.
