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.
Ron In Los Angeles
Probably catch more fish around when it starts getting dark outside. Evening has always been the best time for fishing cats IMO.
Magic bait is best for stocked cats in stocked ponds...Those fish are used to artificial baits...
Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, th-cam.com/users/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.
Thanks for the info!
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.
Very true
That stink bait is definitely my favorite and I caught 60+ catfish in 2 days on it alone
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!
You gave me hope.
You can buy netting material real cheap put around treble hook tie with thread helps keep it on.... I've never tried this stuff hence I'm here : ) 👍
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.
Great vids 🤙
That's what everyone keeps telling me. Gonna have to do another one of these videos! Cause it's HOT down here now.
The magic bait for catfish in the shad flavor was killing them for us last weekend.
@@dr.froghopper6711 my all time favorite is chicken liver and chicken blood, it’s the second bait my grandpa taught me to use and it’s never failed to get me a fish
If I had a choice and could'nt use cut bait, chicken breast and garlic are my go too.
Oh balls, Don't waste your money, just shit in a bucket and try that for bait instead , it's the same thing. That's what we did when I worked at Magic Bait, they just added a stool hardener and bagged and sealed it. 😫
I live in Chattanooga as well. I love that spot, enjoy fishing at River Park too. That catfish bait has worked for me
That's awesome
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.
Just a live panfish!?
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.
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!
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.
beef liver , allways work for catfish , number 1, use it all the time , the best and cheap
Chicken liver the best
Deer liver is cheaper and better than either
I put a small amount of dough bait in a bag & use it to marinate overnight with chicken liver & cut up pieces of legs quarters. Catfish seem to love it. But it doesn't work well by itself. Great video 😎
The magic bait works,but you only catch the small channel cat. Because the small fish smell it first and get to it first.
Ive never had luck with the dough. I was hopeful because I could keep in wrapped in my vehicle all year long and Id be ready when ever the spirit moved me.
But if I have bait that doesnt bait, then I have a heavy hook and an empty frying pan. 😂
Ill just stick with what works.
I use the stink bait and have amazing success with it. Use a spring hook to get your bait to hold better. I catch 4 or 5 in just a couple hours with that stink bait.
Magic bait does work but hard to keep on your hook😂 I just keep it open for a long time and let it turn hard then use it
I seen a video guy catching catfish on magic bait vanilla dough balls
I just came back from fishing with the Magic Bait Chicken Blood using two rods & had so much action I had to go to one rod. They tore this bait up for me. Must have caught 20-25 cats in two hours. 🤷🏻♂️
Hard to go wrong with nightcrawlers or shrimp. I usually take both.
Shads are one of the better baits for catfish would not be suprized if you caught something else.
They make that dough bait in a “night crawlers” scent and I bought some and let’s hope I don’t regret it
Tried the magic bait once couldn’t keep it on the hook even with a treble. Worms work great but other species like white perch often find them first. I think either dead shiners or fresh cut bait work best for strictly catfish fishing.
I agree.
Magic bait chicken blood is not a very good bait at all but I do recommend secret 7 dipbait and catfish charlies cheese dipbait
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.
👍 agree
That magic bait works wonders
Man I have never had luck! I have heard others have tho, awesome vid man 🤙🏼🎣
Thanks for the support man. And yeah I'm sure there been some right place right time situations with either baits. But I would rather stick to my cut bait.
Theres a science to it man, but fish usually prefer things that are alive and moving when they eat em, worms still move around while on the hook and they smell thats why fish love em so much
Use magic bait Whopper shad it is by far the best magic bait for big catfish I've used it in lakes and rivers all over Ohio.
Hope I get a bite I already got it🤦🏾♂️ I’ll see in the morning! You funny though after a while no bites, I feel the same way. Got my subscription ✅
Thanks man!!
“It literally looks like poop”😂😂
I seems thêm kind of morning fishing
I’d like to see this experiment in a lake or pond, a much smaller body of water may help
Magic bait
Use a treble hook for the dough bait it holds it well
man i use that magic bait every time i go fishing u gotta try in a really swampy spot
I would have been casting towards the pillars. I fish around a lot of bridges when it comes to catfishing. It's all about the presentation. The dough bait goes on a certain type hook and I have had caught nice catfish on it. The baby chad would work cut to release all the oils and other scents that come along with it.
Thanks for the pointers! Will use in the next Walmart bait videos I will do!
never had luck on the dried, oiled shad. Caught a few on the king cat but its not a first choice bait
Dip bait works the best for me cut bait as well but anything super stinky at night tends to be the best
Magic bait for sure
Merry Christmas bro ❤
I’ve used both and didn’t have any luck at all not even a nibble
I have used the bait balls from Walmart I caught a nice catfish with it but it did take a while
What I do is cut up chicken, soak it in liver blood. It stays on the hook, and works good.
60 degrees on december 24th sounds like global warming to me my friend.
You should try hotdogs as catfish bait.. trust me it works
Surprisingly enough cheese sticks ain’t bad eigher
How man😭
I usually do better with finicky fish using the Dough baits, or liver,. there are special hooks and lures to use dough baits with to help hold it better. with warmer spring average temps and up
I bet. Would rather not use treble hooks for catfish, but I might give it a try with one of those plugs
I've used both and never catch anything because the bait always always always falls . I normally buy the one on the left to attract the catfish, then use chicken livers
Love the videos recently, very good quality. Happy new year!
Thank you! I really appreciate it, means alot. I've been trying to up my game lol
Got to make sure there's fish in the water first
I catch my first catfish on the baby shad
I've used the sticky dip bait and it does work but the hook is just too big .
Just bought the shad to try out because i hear good stuff about shad. Im new to catfishing. Been using chicken livers and have caught around a 10-12 pounder and a bunch of turtles xD. I do like the memes in the video though so you get a sub for that. Keep up the work bro. You could be the next 1rod1reel.
Thanks alot man! My favorite bait for catfish is chicken breast! Stays on the hook better. Unless I can get some fresh light bait. People underestimate the power of big juicy worms too!
I will go with the cat king I have had not had good luck with the other
Coild be some variables like someone said a ( control) bait . Looks to be sunny so a variable may be barometric pressure or location just a thought
Oh yeah for sure. So many variables it's impossible to really base anything like this in fact. More just a fun video to watch/film. So many variables in fishing, it's hard to say anything for sure.
Hotdog chunks soaked in chicken liver works great
I use walmarts Charlies blood dough bait and the shad in a bag. I smash up the shad and mix it up with the charlies. No big deal. i was just experimenting and caught my limit on channels. Good luck. Bless.
never thought of mixing them.. good idea
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.
This is a very good point. Thanks for your input. I will use worms or something in the next video I do like this.
I have tried baby shad but never caught anything but I have caught a lot of fish using magic bait.
The best bait for catfish are chicken liver in the bloody tubs from walmart. There like 7 and it comes with a container full of them. And the catfish love it
Where I’m at the turtles get to the livers first. But always catch fish with liver.
Same bro it’s so anoying
Damn I already bought 2 packs of the shad I knew I should of went with the worms
Yeah worms are definately the way to go...
Ok
I must.go.to Walmart today
Gizzards hold better.
Letter sit a couple days.
Bang bang.
to be fair, you need to try them at different places, and different weather conditions, different times of year, etc.
Correct. Just a fun video to do. It would be hard to actually compare like your saying...
I’ve used them on a lake for about a week straight the magic baits chicken liver did the deed but yea idk
Use a treble hook with a bait keeper, channel cats tear it up around me.
My favorite baits are fallfish, bluegill, or white sucker cut baits. Your like the 81st person that I've heard trash these Walmart rip offs. I watched the video to see if this was going to be that time they caught fish 😆
Magic takes it
Magic bait all the way
That smelll so strong I didn’t Catch any yet with it
aye try this one its crawfish and chicken blood I've caught 7 channels and 3 blue cats I caught a 14 pound big mouth bass from it too
Where did you get it? Thanks for commenting!
I've used both of those but never had any luck with either of them.
Same here. Rather use worms.
I know this is 9 months old but you should try Danny Kings punch bait. I've never not caught a fish with that bait, it's amazing but you typically only catch eating size.
Never heard of it. Wonder if they have it at walmart.
@@theeverydayangler that's where I use to buy it from, but that was back in Louisiana. I haven't seen it in Hawaii yet but then again there's very minimal freshwater to fish.
Buy some Danny kings punch bait that stuff works really well
I agree Danny King makes really great stinky catfish baits. There kinda on the expen$ive side though.
Magic fish bait will be way better
Great video friend
Thank you!
Most people wouldnt think catfish would eat it but best bait ive ever tried is rotten chicken liver, warning though expect to gag
Yeah that sounds like it stinks! Lol
I've tried this same bait for years and at least in my area it don't work very well ,I'll stick to Chad ,worm and chicken livers ... ✌🏻🍄😚💨💨💨🍄✌🏻
It works in Md
Md??
Montgomery County Md
I’ve used both of those a long time ago on separate occasions. Had the same results for each during hot weather fishing the Arkansas river. I have better luck using worms I get out of my compost worm barrels. Even better than night crawlers. I feed my worms fruit and veggie scraps and rabbit poop.
That's awesome! I tried to start a worm farm once ....turned into a worm graveyard.
Try garlic powder and cornflakes.
I tried that dough on at least 8 hours collectively. It's strait crap.
Live bait all day, full bellies all night.
Agree %100
I knew I shouldn’t have bought those shad
And chicken is stupid cheap and stays on the hook better. You can add garlic powder to it if you want but it works plenty fine as it is.
Nah magic bait is where it's at. You need to dip it in the water and use a treble hook.
You need to invest in some bait runner reels. Beats the hell out of turning the drag up and down. I have the okuma avengers and I like them.
You have to get in the current to catch cats
Lmao no 😂
I caught cats with both.
I try the magic catfish bait and caught nothing but caught some catfish on the baby chad
The magic bait just falls off the shad words ok I got at 35lb blue on that shad bait. But I set up two trot lines with 25 hooks on each line. Livers and gizzards work best.
Yeah I've never tried trot lining, I tried limblining but it didn't go so well lol
@@theeverydayangler you should give it a shot. Look at your states laws on it before you try it. Don't brake the law. lol Good luck.
I tried the dough stuff and I caught a catfish and that was it. I’m gonna try the shad. And I will use liver
Best catfish bait Walmart sells is chicken breast. Or any chicken besides liver to be honest. I can personally vouch for that and chattcatsfishing and Richard Simms have plenty of videos on the quality of bait that chicken breast/thighs are 👍🏼
Your right! I just wanted to know what these baits we're about ..... Thumbs down lol. If you see anyone fishing with them. Must be there first time fishing lol
It could just be caught on something though!
What every fisherman tells themselves so we won’t get too excited
I’ve only caught a fish once on the green shad but I also only used it once it also took all damn day to catch it.
Yeah...it's hard to beat just worms or any type of cut bait.
Beef lever is the best
Never tried it!
Magic Bait is America's Favorite Turtle Feed...
Haha 😅
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)
U and muddycat have to be brothers no doubt 😆😆😆😆
I think shad
Those be the best eating there.... them there about that size
I’ve had luck with the dough bait.
So many factors you really never know. But I would rather buy some chicken breast or liver anyways.
