Does anyone have any recipies they would like to share for stink bait?, I know home made works the best, I just don't know how to make it or what to make it with.

There are some catfishing sites with recipes, but I don't have any specifics. My Grandpa used to make it by taking shad sidesd (filets) and sealing them in a mason jar with chicken entrails. Then he would bury it in the garden for a few weeks. Horrible smelling stuff but it sure worked!!

I like to use Nylon stockings,(no, no, no, I don't wear them)
Fill them with a paste that consists of:

Mackeral, Anchovie, Sardine, Shrimp and Squid. Put these items in a blender or food processor and make a fine past from it.

fill up small piece of Nylon stocking (about silver dollar size) making small pouches. Put in the freezer for several hours before going to fish.

These pouches slowly let off a nice scent that the Channels Cats like.[cool]
