Catfish Punch Bait (Best Catfish Bait For Eater Catfish)

- Punch bait is a type of catfish bait that gets its name from the process used to bait the hook. The term punch bait doesn’t come from the brand or manufacturer but rather the type of product. Punch bait is typically made from a cheese base with a fibrous material added to them that thickens them. The addition of this fibrous material allows the bait to stick to a plain treble hook and eliminates the need to use spring hooks, dip worms or tubes, or any other form of “catfishing lure” that is often needed to keep other products on the hooks. This is much of what has made punch baits so popular for catfishing.
Punch bait is hands down one of the best catfish baits for catching "eater" size catfish, especially channel catfish. It's inexpensive, easy to use, and flat-out catches fish.
In this video, we take an in-depth look at catfish punch bait, what it is, how to fish with it, how to rig with catfish punch bait, and more.

Thank you for this information 👍🏾
Thanks
I made my own for decades, and you are correct, it is a process. So i started buying it about 7 y years ago. Initially i really like cj's, but in my opinion it has become very inconsistent with quality. My last bucket was nothing more than blobs of fiber, very little cheese. I should have sent it back, but doctored it up and used it.
Sureshot is a very good bait also, especially in current due to the chicken fat in it. However, keep a pair of sidecutters handy, you will need to clip off the chicken fat from your hook often.
I'm looking to try another brand, if i can't find the quality I'm looking for, i just may have to start making it again. I make it 5 gallons at a time. From someone who has used cheesebait for over 40 years now, you are absolutely correct. There ain't no better bait for them tasty channels, my favorite!!
Have you tried Danny Kings punch bait? I've had real good success using it
good info..... ty
I used it way back when Bob Fincher was making it in Gillette Tx. Bob was the king of punch baits
Good bait!
That CJ's bait is awesome we always dip a stick in the bait and throw it out to attract the fish
I use a lot of sure shot punch bait from Benny Roberts in Decatur, TX!!! Awesome bait and very affordable!! Chad said something about his bait some years back and I just drive there and pick it up out of the milking house!!
Benny is a good friend!
@@Catfishedge last time i was there Benny told me he was through ,great guy
Like your one subscriber said CJ has been inconsistent lately which is sad because I know him personally and a real pleasant man to get to know on a personal level. My back up punch bait is Danny Kings. I've limited out catching above average channel cat. Great video btw
Is the best fishing👍 oneng hobby fishing from Indonesia frend🙏 🤝🎣
Thanks for visiting
What's the best flavor you use I live in Cincinnati Ohio the lake I fish in has shade in it
I am new to catfishing. Will this work for fishing from the shore? Can I cast these out and leave them in rod holders?
I like sonny's dip bait.. with these baitholder treble hooks i made.
Thanks. I'm not a fan of dip baits. Too messy!
@@Catfishedge yeah I get that.. but instead of the punch bait having the holding ingredient the hooks I use have the holding material.. in my experience their both equal
what is the best rig when using punch bait
I want to make little bait bags but I don't know exactly how to hook them with a circle hook
At Fork, there are times, only small channels are caught with punch bait. I switched to raw unflavored chicken and caught bigger channels where only small ones were caught.
Awesome!
The cjs which one is best
When your fishing those flooded trees and brush for channel cats.. do you spot them on electronics or just hop from spot to spot or just known spots?
Hands down for us is the Wicked Sticky punch baits. We buy 4 gallons at a time. The regular sticky bait and the sewer baits both work great.
I use my gut. It's so thick you can't see them on your graph.
I use Stubbys..made here in Texas by lake fork
Thanks! Never tried it,
Now that it's October, where do you look for channels?
I start fishing for blue catfish when it cools but would fish a little deeper for channels
What do I do
Can you use a regular hook with punch bait or just a treble hook
Treble
What if it's dry
You can add vegetable oil to it a little at a time until you get it to the consistency you want.
What brand punch bait used
Watch the video
CJ's Bait Company - catfish shad punch bait.
Links in the description.
I use the same bait you use, but when I pull the hook out, most of it stays in the bucket.....no matter what the temp is, and no matter what the consistency. But, if I'm trying to get it OFF the hook, when I'm done, it won't come off....lol. It is absolutely deadly for channels though, and you'll never miss a bite with your secret catfish rig.
Stir it up good. That should help.
I just got it in the mail and it's dry
Way easier to make than you make it sound
Not good bait
