    Default Baiting holes


    How many chum Catfishing spots? We dump soured grain or sweet feed in spots here to pole fish for them. Yesterday 4 of us landed over 50 in about 3 hours.

    How long do you give it to bring them in? Toss some out while fishing, day before, ect?

    Never tried it cause it's messy and if it turns over in the trunk...shew.

    I'm not a pro at it, I just let it sit in the sun for a few days with a towel over it to keep the bugs out. And dump it in the morning I going to fish. Like Nimrod said....you can sit in one spot and catch fish for hours.

    Soy beans work great. You can get some for free around the railroad loading area of the feed bins.

    Make sure you are up wind while transporting. Has a mild odor :D:D

    Tommyboy, you soak grain in a bucket covered with water and a pack of yeast or a beer poured in on top to help it sour. That's about it. Deer corn will work fine.

    You dump the corn straight in the water or put it in a burlap sack.
    I had a old man tell me once to put bread in a burlap sack and sink with some blocks
    Never tried it but he said to sink it a week ahead to give it time to spoil

    I know that soured corn works great,but something else you can use without the smell or mess is range cubes available from your farm store about 10$ per 50lb bag I use them all the time! If you are fishing a good area it usually takes about 30 min. to start working. I throw them out by hand about a gallon jug at a time . Last week I went to and only baited one time and ended up with 31
