WALMART Catfish Bait Challenge! (They ACTUALLY Work!?)
Ойын-сауық
Today we test the best catfish baits at Walmart to see if they actually catch catfish. I have always had mixed opinions about these artificial catfish baits from Walmart, so today we grab a few and test them for ourselves.
We ended up getting the good ole magic bait, powerbait catfish chunks, the worlds best catfish bait, and finally these baby marinated shad. I know you all say catfish eat anything but if they did we would use anything as bait and not our favorites.
I am looking at doing more Walmart bait challenges soon so if you all enjoy this catfish Walmart bait challenge then let me know! Catfishing with Walmart bait may surprise you!

The magic catfish bait is GOLDDDD. Catfish love it. Only thing is that it’s hard for the bait to stay on the hook
15:30. That's the reason why I bought myself some bells!!! :)
I know the Catfish Charlie works good. I've literally caught hundreds of Catfish on it through the years. Enjoyed it!

The stink bait reguardless of brand. Use the applicator sponges or grooved worms Carolina rigged. Massive pointer. Heat up used cooking oil on the stove. Pour a bit in the stink bait and stir till you get the consistency you want. Now you can use a stick and coat it 100% and put it in the water toughen it up a bit then cast it out.
I've used hotdogs, bacon, night crawlers, cheese bait, power bait, liver, shrimp, minnows, Ray's blood bait which is no longer available it was real chicken blood, catfish Charlie, Danny Kings didn't work, live shad as well as cut shad. I have had the best luck on night crawlers, cheese bait, catfish Charlie and shrimp. Believe it or not grasshoppers work damn good in the summer down south.
Awesome video

When you push on the stars, just giving one or two really hurts the self check personal. They get scored on the review. Management gets nasty toward them. Most of them do not want to be on self checkout, or like the machines. Please remember they do not have a choice. A lot of times they deal with really bad mannered people. But I did noticed that the machine looked clean. If you want to get rid of the self check machines, do not use them. Let management know. A note to the wise. They are dirty and the personal sometimes do not have the time to clean them or just will not clean them. They are also expected to answer a blinking light in 15 seconds. If they don’t make 15 seconds management once again cracks a whip on their back They are understaffed, underpaid and not appreciated . This is why Walmart can’t get personal. Nine of ten self check personal get sick all the time with Covid or the Flu. I personally got Covid and influenza B working on self check. Sorry about the rant, but I thought you should know for your health. Hopefully someone reads this and passes it on. Great fishing guys! Love it!

Mistake number one never, ever, ever, ever, smell a catfish bait nose deep in the bag/container, open it and breath, if you cant smell it its not a good bait. lol Seriously waft it if you cant just smell it opening the container at arms length , they tend to be pungent and seem to have a smell that can run against the wind.
I fish all the time. They don’t work!
Treble hooks don’t work as well as straight hooks.

OK, Dude. I'm a well rounded angler, subscriber, watcher and Boomer. I cringe when you use treble hooks. I know, you don't use them all the time. In the day, trebles for keeper/eaters. Singles were more sporting chance, barbless when required or for a challenge. I do appreciate you keeping when they've swallowed it. Not preaching, just not wanting to watch your vids and cringe. Also, your vids have me wanting to suck it up, and give urban/canal fishing a try without shame. I've fished in all kinds of water, never ditches and overflow ponds ;) ...gonna give it go now TY

Treble hooks are necessary for some baits such as softer catfish dough and punch bait. I hate using them but you need to for some baits. I match my baits as well as I can to my hooks. That’s the only reason I’d ever use trebles. Cringe if you must that’s just the way it is. No shame in fishing. Fish anywhere and everywhere you can! One can only be limited by themself
