put range cubes like they feed cattle into a plastic bucket that has a lid fill it half to 3/4 full and fill it with hot water to get it to ferment quicker leave enough room in the bucket for it to swell let it set in the sun a couple of days before putting the lid on it .
take that to the lake and pour it out in a hole your going to fish it will draw cats and bream like crazy. But it really smells dont spill it in the boat. but if you can stand it keep a little to dip you bait into.
shrimp, cut the gizzard out of big gizzard shad, or the back strap off a jack rabbit all work very well , also chicken blood, but the blood bait works best in july.
the range cubes work all year.

snag line
I have used a snag line here in Texas in richland chanbers and in ceder creek, a game warden checked me at ceder creek and did not fine me , saying as long as you are baiting the line there is nothing they could do about it. Oh he also said I will be keeping a eye on you and this line. To make a lone story short this line was cut four times so I just took it up.
I am a disabled vet here in Texas 50 south of Dallas . I fish richland chamber , ceder creek , and navarro mills. come see us.

Grandpa's
My granda worked on a bait for many, many years. He finally came up with a concoction that he used with a sponge on a trebble hook. It worked. Fishing a clear creek, 2 or 3' deep, I have seen the cats come up stream looking for it. Going side to side. If they passed it up, they would only go a yard or two, turn back downstream till they got a scent again and repeat the process till they found it. He said he would tell me the "secret" ingredent on day "before he went fishing with his grandpa again". He passed away while I was overseas in the service. I do know most all of what he used. Here is the list.
chicken blood
beef blood
about 6 doz. minners (mashed up)
cottenseed meal
oil of anise
limburger cheese and
the "secret ingredient".
Can't remember how much of what 'cept the minners, but it came out a light brown liquidy mess that you had better be upwind from and don't dare get any on your cloths. Used a stick to poke the sponged hook around in it. I did drop the stick one time and it disappeared before it got 10' down stream. Was going to send this last tid bit to Ripley, but doubt they would believe it either.

I got this from another forum, have tried it 5 or 6 times, AND IT CATCHES CATFISH!
Buy a package of boneless chicken breasts. Cut them into cubes for bait. Pour half a package of strawberry/banana jello mix in a contaner and add alayer of chicken cubes. Add the rest of thepackage of jello. Cut more cubes and repeat. Cover with lid and refrigerate for a couple days. (If the chicken has been drained on paper towels the chicken wont make water (syrup mixed in with the dry jello powder) with the chicken but I dont dry it.
I've fish this along side of catalpa worms and the chicken held it's own. This summer when I used the chicken the largest I've caught on it was 9 & 1/2 lbs. and we've also caught several in the 3-6 lb. range. I was told by the guy that gave out this recipe that this isnt a "big fish" getter but anything up to 15 lbers. or so will bite it. All I know is that I've caught blue cats on it everytime I've made it and went catfishing. (Naturally it helps going fishing where some fish are at.)
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.
