you are correct that the pellets from wall mart are not the right pellets. those pellets are formulated for carp, (gold fish)
in pond situations the fish like I said before are traind to eat those pellets. the fish farm pellets wont make the catfish go in to a feeding frenzy...
if you want to draw the cat fish in fast you want to use fresh chicken or beef liver. (real cheep at the grocery shop) you can freeze it till you are ready to use it. In my case I have keep a large amount of the stuff in the freezer, I like to fry it up so if I get the urge to go a cat fishing I have to have a lot on hand [cool]
the draw back is you may draw in an ocational turtle....
but with eather hot dog or liver they are chum all by its self even if you dont prime the area with it. the juices will seep in to the lake and river currents and the fish will follow the sent if they are hungry...
