Buy two or three cans of ALPO DOG FOOD poke holes in the cans & toss them in the water where ur fishin fer the cats. That may or may not work. Worth a try.

do you think that will work in a bait trap

[kawey]

id try the small bluegill u catch thats probably there main forage also tyry fishing closer to the edges the cats tend to hole up in the sides of the banks also try a couple of jugs with different baits see what works best

[gtroths]

we tried all that the dip bait works great especially sonys

[gtroths]

we dont know were to get crawdads ill try to find a place

[lvbndad29]

Crawdads or Crayfish can be found easily in small creeks and streams. Just put out a trap in rocky areas in the water with a cut up fish and let it set for a few hours. When you get back you should have a few. Most bait shops carry them also or can get them for you.

frabill makes a nice black vinyl coated trap with two 2.25 inch openings on each size i would get one if they were up here i might get one for bigger baitfish
