Man I love it, right when I get off a long days work a River certified notification pops up!🤙
Same
For small midwest channels in ponds and lakes, punch bait like the Secret 7 and Sonnys was the bait of choice, even over cut bait. Rivers, cut bait and live was king. In cold weather, dip bait is nearly useless, but when the water is warm, that scent will travel quite a ways. In my experience, just as you saw, the dip bait always catch smaller channels, the cut and live baits always bring in the big boys. I've also never caught blues or flats on dip baits.
Agree 100%
I concur
As always, love the video!
My Grandpa went 3 to 4 times a week to the MO River every week when I was growing up. His bait of choice was loading 4 nightcrawlers on a J-hook or spong bait/dip bait. He never came home empty handed and plenty were some heifers. Two things he taught me in contrast to Spencer's tactics.... he would buy legit sea sponges and use large chunks of those to dip. Also, he would swear by dipping the dry spong in the water first, then squeeze out the excess water, then dip it in and load it up. I can testify it stayed on WAY better that way. Dip of choice was Bowkers, would buy it 5 gal buckets full. I'm a cut bait guy for sure, but small ponds or lakes tend to take stink baits, dip baits, or livers! Tight lines yall!
Appreciate your videos! Thanks to what I've learned from watching you I've been hammering the channels so far this spring and have caught two at once on two separate occasions using the double hook rig.
Been waiting for this one. Love the comparison. Thanks Spenc!
River Certified videos are the only part of Monday that I look forward to!!
Another great video. Thanks for sharing your adventures Spencer!
Thanks for the support. Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! I've never had dip bait work. Glad the water finally warned up here in my neck of the woods. Caught 30 channels Saturday night. On cut bait of course. Keep the heat coming!
I've caught an awful lot of catfish on any number of mentioned stink baits over the last 25 years(SE iowa). In my experience it's a warm water bait, 65dg F+. Wait a month and try it again, thanks for the content and positive vibes
Very good comparison, and I did enjoy watching the video. Take care, and stay safe.
Great video man really enjoy all your videos keep it up can't wait for the next one keep those lines tight
Thanks man. I'll do my best!
very good comparison. ive used dip bait in some local lakes. did decent where there was no current. moving water will always get cut bait for me though. love the vid man. the more you know.
Great videos! I have tried all the latest rage in baits, I have found that around my area the stinkbaits work best when the weather is warm and the water temperature is high.
Rooster liver does good if you can even find it. I always noticed more fish with dip baits and larger fish with cut.
This here makes Monday’s good.. I’ve always said you’re a great fisherman Spencer. But I have NEVER caught any catfish.. heck any fish on any Walmart bait! Great video Spencer!
like the video. i have found that using stink bait works in warm water and smaller bodies of water. I prefer shad on big rivers, but in smaller rivers from shore with limited access the stink bait can bring the channels to you. Id have to say that they both have there benefits in certain conditions. stink bait has not worked for me in cold water situations. I am impressed it worked at all! love the videos. its nice to see upper midwest fising about more than just walleyes.
I remember long time ago when I was younger we used to use dip bait called catfish charlie,it worked some but prefer cut bait, loving the videos man
Good video!! I used secret 7 and sudden impact made by team catfish. I had good luck in white river on them 2. But u catch alot of small ones. I also like skip jack!! For me the dip bait works better in summer than winter. I like the tubes that team catfish makes.
I dig I dig. Here in Texas dip or punch bait will destroy eater size cats but works way better in warmer water
Good stuff! Raw shrimp and cut bait for me.
I use Tripple S (sonny's) with great success on the Mississippi here in MO. Love the big dipper bait holders like what you are using, but you have to ditch the sponge and flip the basket around to expose the hook. It works better than the way they come in the package.
I always use dip bait on the rivers love the video
Secret 7 works great for eater size cats! I’ve been using it for the last 10 years🤙🏾
Dad and his buddy work log jams on the river from airboat with stink bait. The catch a pile small eaters. I have never caught anything very big on the stuff. Also I’ve always been hardcore live bluegill kinda guy, but this weekend I used fresh cut shad I caught. Did pretty ok, 8 blues one flat one channel
I will go cut bait or live bait any day before a manufactured bait.. but my uncle used to make homemade stink bait and we caught over 40 channel cats on one ☝️ trip but the channels were 1/2 pound to a pound so the quality of fish on stink bait to me will always be smaller then cut or fresh .. thank you for all you do spencer awesome video!!!!
Sounds similar it what I've seen in the past. You can sure put together a good fish fry using stinkbait for sure!
Just noticed you passed 💯 k congratulations bro. Keep the videos coming thanks 👍
Nice video.liked seeing you and mark get them big flathead good seeing you in Tn
Good idea. I'm not much on dip bait BUT I have had decent luck with Danny's blood bait. Likely was sitting next to what you picked up at WallyWorld. If I'm not going to use live or fresh cut I will do good on soured carp. Seems like those channels and blues will swim a mile up river to see where that trail of stunk is coming from. Learned it in north-central Iowa on both Des Moines, and had a lot of luck with it just below lock and dam #19.
Gotta a couple of weeks to catch up on, been busy on the salt life.
I still have a old jar of sonnys dip bait blood formula and it still works great I've had that jar for 5 or 6 years
Great video. I finally caught a Walter today! Keep the videos coming Spencer.
Congrats man! Glad you enjoyed the video too.
I feel that Dip bait catches mostly the smaller catfish because every time I use it I catch Smaller catfish but this year I’m determined to learn how to catch catfish on shed that’s one thing I’m not good at yet awesome video Spencer like always
Great video, totally enjoyed it. My experience with stink bait not so good ,even my own I've made right.
Glad ya enjoyed it man. I've had similar experiences.
As always love the vid’s! Plan to try some of that bait this summer….well after your experiment maybe not! Would love to see another vs. bait vid. Hope you get warm weather soon. Water and weather is warm here - LOL.
I'll definitely keep that in mind! The funny thing is, it was sleeting last week and it was 92 today🤦♂️
@@RiverCertified no way - that’s too crazy! Mother Nature keeping us extremely hot here! Like by 10AM, you’re done for the day! 🥵
Dad got stink bait from a guy who made his own. Sold it by the gallon jar. Was made out of cheese and spoiled something or other. If it was too soft, he'd work some corn starch in it, and a little STP if it was too stiff. He pulled in some nice 2- and 3- ponders for supper.
Good stuff man !! Tight lines Spencer !! 🐟
I appreciate it!
Never had much luck with dip bait when the water was under 72 degrees. I’ll take some fresh cut shad any day!
I technically just did this challenge yesterday. My buddy loves his stinkbait. I had just caught a single shad, and a few bluegill. He had caught no fish on stinkbait, one on a worm while I was fresh bait net chucking. I put the shad head on threw it out and in 3 minutes had a nice 8lb channel. He didn’t catch any on dip bait. But got bit on cut bluegills. This was in a lake.
Little let but gonna watch it, great video tho keep it up, I'm flying across amarica to new fishing spots, good like out there, still river certified 👌
glad you done this challenge it would be cool to see more challenges!!
I'll definitely keep that in mind. Glad ya enjoyed it dude!
@@RiverCertified can’t wait one day to fish with u!
Love the comparison thanks
Glad ya enjoyed it man!
Cjs bait co punch bait works amazing. I’ve only ever caught channels with it though
Since you’re trying stink bait. I’d like to see you try strawberry jello infused chicken breast! I’ve watched several other people on TH-cam do very well with it! Thanks for all the great videos bro. I’m ether watching fishing videos or fishing. Thanks again for all your hard work!
Second that try the strawberry jello chicken
Sound delicious!
Bro the jello soaked meta is overhyped. Can’t beat a natural bait.
i caught my pb on strawberry jello/sugar/sprite marinated chicken. ive caught more on it than stink or cut bait personally. it hasnt failed me yet
I’ve had fairly decent luck on stink bait in the past. I’ve never had a day I didn’t catch anything on it but I’ve also never had the best day of my life with it either. I usually go for chicken liver or chicken breast and they do pretty good.
I dig this video brother,I did one of these vids while back it was fun to do lol
Hell yeah man. I'm sure I'll do some more.
Great video. Same results for me unless you at a city lake for some reason. Are you going to do a video about why you got rid of the garmin TM?
Fish do weird things in city lakes and ponds. I doubt I do a video on that. I try to keep things positive.
Hey man love your videos just had a question what cast nets do you recommend?
Man, I’m a fan of you fishing brush piles for BIG flatheads off your kayak…Don’t get me wrong, all your content is fire, but those are my favorites…. Keep grinding bud. 💯🤞🏼
My guy ive gone fishing the last 4 saturdays and have gotten skunked everytime me and my buddy now i live vicariously threw you cause i cant catch shit thank you my man.
Watched a video today of a guy who caught hundreds of catfish and split his bait 50/50 of cut and strawberry chicken. About 70% prefer the strawberry chicken. Was pretty impressed.
Absolutely enjoyed the video, I'm a and I never use any stink bait or store bought "catfish bait."
I don't much either. I have had more consistent luck with shrimp in the past though. Glad ya enjoyed it dude!
Great video as usual. I always take worms just in case. Catfish are the most fun to catch. Going to Clearlake, here in California, on Thursday, Breaden is in the Catfish derby there. (He is in kid division, he is 13) We go every year. See you soon in the next video.
Clearlake still has large channel cats? Thought the selfish little-boat folks had pillaged it… like they are doing to Berryessa
Fish definitely know when you are on your phone or taking a leak. I've come close to losing a few rods to some Carl's. Now I invested in some bait runners.
Up here on the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers stink bait is good for the small channels cut bait will get you the bigger channels and live bait (especially bullhead) will get you some big ol flats.
Wild game snacks always taste better when your fishing!
Honestly I have used that same bait....BUT I found that it works best with chunks of shad dipped in it! Not much luck on the stink bait alone, combine to two and sometimes it works great!
Thats good to know. I could see that slaying them at times.
The best catfish fishing show on TH-cam only thing you need to take the Cubs hat off and switch it with a St Louis Cardinals at LOL St Louis in the house
I really appreciate the kind words man. Go Cubbies (even when they suck)
Danny Kings punch bait is the gold standard on the Arkansas river in my area for commercial baits
Denny King was a legend for sure man
You would have to use both all the time all over. Then in your opinion which you like!! Because the next time you go out it's different. So dammed if you do or if you don't. Maybe keep a Lil on the side when nothing's working then pull it out, with the worm!! Why not!! Thanks great show
Dip bait works well in warmer water. Ours is nothing more than cheese, oil and baking soda. Drilled together and age. Sometimes years. It works well for channels up to 7 pounds. But we fish for " eater" fish. Fish anything that breaks the current and warmer water. You will pile up the channels
The best catfish bait I have ever found was chicken blood. It's poured over a lattice of filter-like material and allowed to congeal, then cut into strips about 1" wide and put into a plastic container. I just cut a piece about 1.5" long, folded it over and stabbed it down over a treble hook, then dropped it down to about 10" off the bottom. Doesn't take long to begin sacking them up.
Like the bait challenge here...I am basically anything but stink bait guy, but obviously it still works
It’s available in Des Moines try triple s cheese bait we never used dip bait until last year and it was great mistake.
I was just curious, where did you get those alumatrac brackets for your Bimini top as well as your rod holders, if that's what they are, things in advance!
Also, you need to get up to Ohio sometime. The channel cat fishing in Lake Erie's Sandusky bay is absolutely ridiculous.
Are you strapped when you go fishing? Just curious since I’m in Texas and sometimes deal with javalinas and coyotes
Stink baits work OK for smaller cats, but the smell and nastiness is not worth the effort. I used to use a dip bait called Phew 40 years ago and I still smell it haha enjoyed the video.
Keep up the good fishing 🎣 on
I live in Montana and I have really good luck with shrimp over cut bait and stink baits
I dont think I've had shrimp out produce cutbait, but it definitely catches some nice fish on occasion for me
I caught 2 catfish the other day on a #6 panther martin...lol !!!!
Sonny's stink bait is now called triple S stink bait .. if u can get some it will out fish shad but the size of the fish will be smaller but u will catch 2 :1 on it compared to shad
It's almost time for shovel heads. I recently asked what baitcasters you used and you replied but didn't tell me what size. What are your thoughts on a 6ft extra medium heavy with the okuma for bank fishing. Thanks
abu garcia 7000 pro rockets on ebay are pretty reasonable and will catch any fish in North america.
What size boat you got there? Width/length
I caught a 6.5 pound channel this weekend...on a white double willow bladed spinnerbait while bass fishing. Figured I had better try actual catfish bait, used some guts from some fish cleaning procedures, and caught a 7.5 pounder...it wasn't the worst Sunday I've ever had.
Sounds pretty solid to me
River Certified 💯💪🏽🔥✊🏽
Nice brother not too bad the last cat was a nice one shad beats stink bait sounds about right never had much luck on stink bait than again not a expert with the stink 👍🏽👊🏽
I pickle my own chicken livers with garlic or Anise. I don't use Borax, just salt, liver, and scent. Works very well for me.
Appreciate ya letting me know dude
Awesome video
How big is your boat if u don't mind me asking. I'm looking in to getting one and that seems to be compatible for what I need lol
Speaking about brands what is the hot sauce you soak your filet’s in before frying. Thanks
Franks for sure man
Cut Bait Is King Nuff Said! Man your Cubs are Not Doing so good 8 and 1/2 back but it is a long season ,my boys are 1/2 a game back, and you are Feeshing and I am Weeshing I was Feeshing ! Thanks for the great vid Lil Bro!
A rod question, Spencer. If you could only use one of your rods for channel cats, which one would it be?
I've never used dip bait I do however use liver because finding bait is sometimes not an option and I've caught some giant channels on liver and a literal ton of perfect eaters I also catch a lot of stripers and wipers on liver sometimes liver outfishes shad 10 to 1 sometimes they want cut bait during the spawn or when they're supposed to spawn the only thing hybrid and stripers will eat is their eggs it's a pain to get that first one but once you do you're good to go
Another good video brother 👍
Glad ya enjoyed it man!
Try sudden impact, it’s made by the same company as secret 7
As far as catfish bait goes, a catfish will eat pretty much everything a person eats. That's why you see so many different baits being used on the water. My personal favorite is plain old hot dogs at night by a campfire. Either way you wind up with food to eat.
I've never had luck with stink bait as much as I wish it worked just for the convenience factor. Last I tried was some super catfish bait from Berkley scientifically designed to catch catfish like nothing else. Fished it against everything from cut bait, nightcrawlers, crawdads, grasshoppers and even a beetlespin. The stinkbait seemed to repell everything. Not even a nibble when everything else was getting hammered by channels and bullheads of all sizes. I wanted it to work so bad but it really seemed to repell the fish rather than attract. Add it to the dozen or more stinkbaits I've tried that get out fished by pretty much anything else. I want to believe! Unfortunately it just never works for me.
love it,,,, thank you.
Walleye is good bait I go down to the saylorville dam and cast net them
Cool video brother ill be watching. Peace out from Ohio Don T
I see you switched from the baitcasters to the spinning rods and reels for the smaller catfish.
Great video your content is great. Now I’m saying if you ever do this again when I was so poor all I ate was catfish. I use to use Catfish Charlie blood dip bait. I always got to eat the next day
I've heard good things about it, but never tried it. Good to know man!
The trick to dry them is to swing the rod around your head. Use centrifugal force to shed the water off
Cool video, what about chicken livers vs shad???
These baits have their niches. I use a punch bait for channels when I want lots of eating size fish. If I'm at the lake or river and want a big blue or flathead, I'm going with cut or live shad
Watch that video in the tn river.
You guys cuaght some nice flatheads..
Thanks for the videos..
Thanks man. Working on that one right now. Glad you enjoy em!
@@RiverCertified went on watts bar dam and cuaght some blues 2 weeks back. Look forward for the next video
lucky 7 was made first in Pana, Il by my fishing friend. it is not a dip bait not the original. was made use dough balls on treble hooks. ( John Miller and Carl Morton.
Thats pretty cool to know. Thanks for sharing.
Sonnys was the brand we always used and would catch a ton of catfish with it on the Mississippi by wing dikes. Never caught anything over 2 lbs though. 😆
Hey Spencer when using stink bait worms try holding by string and spin dry it
That's a great idea!
Anyone have a River Certified video I haven't seen till Monday???🤗
On the Ohio River for channel cats, you can't beat the stink baits. Try using small pieces of a sponge on a hook, and thinning out the stink bait with vegetable oil. Can't go wrong, just don't get that stinks stuff on ya...
Great video
Thanks Albert
Don't know if you will get to read this but around southern Illinois catfish love Redwing black birds take the feathers off and cut it up puy it on the hook and also use the guts
I'm pretty ruthless with bait, but I'm not sure I could bring myself to use a bird haha
@@RiverCertified get ya a road kill they work like katalfa worms
