Why would you have trouble keeping gizzards on a hook?


That's what I was thinking. I love to eat chicken gizzards and hearts. I have never tried them for cat fishing.

I use the tiny rubber bands ..once the liver or gizzard is on my hook I wrap the rubber band around it..u get 1000 of them for $1 at most dollar general stores..my opinion beats the heck out of trying to get the nylon off the barbs of the hook..happy fishing

I purchase a tub of this bait but do not think that was a good idea. I have tried to use it three times now and this is what I found out.

I used tubes to pack the bait into. I guess if a fish bite within a couple of minutes it would be okay. It dissolves after a short time in the water. Even drying off the tubes before trying to load them again it is nearly impossible to reload them.


I have not tried it yet with sponges but will try that otherwise I might as well throw it away.

If anyone has used it and like it please clue me in on how to use it.

UPDATE 7/15/2020

I posted this awhile back and looked at suggestions and appreciate the inputs. I never did get around to using sponges instead of tubes.

I don't know if you would call this a dip or punch mixture. Seems to thick for dip and to thin for punch. It does separate easily and has to be stirred often in warm weather.

I took a portion and mixed cornmeal into so it became a dough bait. Tends to be easily crumbled with just cornmeal.

I took another portion and mixed equal parts of cornmeal and flour. This made a nice dough bait. Has good body.

I places both portions in water for water test. The cornmeal one held up better than I expected. The cornmeal/flour held up better. Both seem to would stay on the hook when using but have not tried them when actually fishing.

I am going to mix the remaining portion with the cornmeal and flour combination. I will add some drained minced garlic to the mixture. Garlic is always good, RIGHT.

If fish will take it I may purchase this product again, time will tell. I will post again after having a chance to fish with it.

The product in its original form did not work for me.
