Depends on the catfish. Big cats are some wicked predators and will take whatever you want to put out there that's alive. Bluegills. I always had good luck with fresh mackerel - oily, bloody and tough, stays on the hook well. Then fresh chicken livers. Cut a patch from some panty hose and wrap the liver in that, keeps it on the hook. What are artificial chicken livers? Never heard of that.
Gulp makes them; sold in the little jars like power bait.
Smooth, red, irregular shaped chunks. Smelly...
