    I have been using that magic bait over 15 years. Crayfish with chicken blood. I love how it attracts the big ones. . California, Arizona and Nevada the catfish are crazy about it. But all baits do not work in all waters.

    Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.

    I've caught them on shrimp. Really sometimes you can try every bait known to man and they still won't bite because they just won't sometimes. Might be cause of previous weather conditions and might be because they're hanging out in a different locations or they aren't hungary.

    Use circle hooks with spring and pick it on, and will hold better. Type of bait depends on location. Have used both of these and they do work!

    I’m a Tennessee river rat grew up on river canyon. Catfish come out at dusk and troll the top of the water in HUGE numbers. The best bait is a whole ass panfish tossed out and left to catch. You’ll get a monster.

  • @Cheez-Itz_Christ
    @Cheez-Itz_Christ 4 года назад +35

    The magic bait works best in hotter weather, and if you dip it in the water for a couple seconds it will become sticky and won’t fall off the hook.

    I used to have a bullhead cat in a fish tank and got it really used to being fed, and it would eat anything. Anything but that stink Bait. I put some in there and had to get it out after a day because it would not touch it. Drop a worm or liver, he'd eat it before it'd hit bottom.

  • @65FullMoon83
    @65FullMoon83 3 года назад +6

    All the Commercial Stink Baits work well for Catfish if you can keep them on a hook. Stink baits are usually better for catching a lot of smaller eater size Catfish. Best bait For the LARGER Cats is LARGE & Medium pieces of fresh cut Shad, Herring, Buffalo, Sucker or Carp!

  • @waucheesione2828
    @waucheesione2828 4 года назад +8

    Used to always have plenty of luck with chicken liver. Thought everyone used that for years. Never caught anything over 20 lbs with it though, but we would set out styrofoam floats and about 3 ft of line on them and throw them out in the sloughs. Put out 100 at a time and spread them out on the TN river and we would be pulling cats for hours afterwards. Sometimes we would use some shad cutbait but we never kept much track of it. Now the sight of chicken liver makes me gag! An average 4 hour trip with 100 jugs would normally yield about 100 lbs of blues and channels. Never remember ever catching a flathead. We would always cast a treble hook across the float lines and wind them in so we could fight them more..lots of fun.

  • @charlesh1735

    The magic bait works,but you only catch the small channel cat. Because the small fish smell it first and get to it first.

    But if I have bait that doesnt bait, then I have a heavy hook and an empty frying pan. 😂

    Tried that magic bait back around 1994 when I was ten... never bought it again. For channel cats, chicken liver and shiner heads are hard to beat. In terms of store bought products, give me secret 7 by Team Catfish over that magic bait any day. I will never forget my grandfather asking to smell it and put the bag up to his nose. Lol.... He always used liver and shrimp for catfish. Wouldn't touch that stuff.

  • @wayne3302264
    @wayne3302264 2 года назад +4

    In order to more accurately test a product such as these you need what is considered a control group as well meaning you should also be using a bait that is proven to work in conjunction with the test groups. If the proven bait is catching fish in the same area and the test products are not then you know more accurately that the test products are not that good because otherwise the fish just may have not been biting anything that day.

      Yeah...it's hard to beat just worms or any type of cut bait.

    I tried both once, same results, caught to small channels on the shad and nothing but stinky fingers on the dough.

      Better if using worms or chicken breast!

      @@theeverydayangler; Been experimenting with chicken breast (or thigh meat), soy sauce, garlic and raspberry jam marinate for a couple of days seems to be the best so far. Much better than plain chicken. (Got the idea of the jam because I have harvested channels and blues in creeks with gullets full of mulberries)

    Pantyhose. By cheap pantyhose, cut it in strips, and tie the magic bait inside it.
    It works. I've caught a few that way.
