[@brianhearon1930]

I tried this experiment this year myself with Tropical punch,black cherry,strawberry,and lemon-lime powder Gatorade.We caught fish on all of them but the black cherry was the killer that day.My fishing buddy caught a 25 pound gar on the gatorade.And it worked very well in 3 separate lakes.Awesome video!!

[@allin2224]

Started watching the different catfish you tubers couple months ago and amazed that most never heard of using chicken. I was taught as a youngster to use chicken for catfish in the 70s

[@PalmettoCats]

chicken is one of those baits that are hit or miss around my area. I had always heard of using chicken with WD40, but I know the WD40 was a myth. Now, I have friends that ALWAYS have chicken on the boat when they fish.

For the folks that are having trouble keeping the chicken breast on the hook when casting hard, try boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut up the same and marinated as you wish. Much tougher and stays on the hook well.

[@PalmettoCats]

👍

[@Joe_Goofball]

Have also used roe bags to contain chicken and/or livers, popping the hook all the way through one side, turning it, then burying in the roe-bag encased bait...

[@Yarrick666]

Hey man, great video! New fan here. I wanted to let you know about some success my friends and I have had all season with a modified version of this bait. Pork! We were using chicken and kool-aid, but since we did a lot of shore fishing and really whipped the bait out there we'd lose a lot of bait. We switched to pork instead (Bought whole cheap pork roasts and cut them up) and not only does it stay on our hook (even after catching fish), we feel like they bite just as much if not more! Pork is our magic bait! One last thing we did was switch to jello powder instead of kool-aid powder. the Jello coagulates a bit more and makes for a nice bait. Hope you try it out one day, cheers!

[@PalmettoCats]

Awesome! I’ll have to try pork. I recently did a jello video, go check it out!

[@brendaseigler3923]

Thank you for the heads up on the pork .

[@PalmettoCats]

I know right! Crazy!

[@jamesshepherd7727]

I use chicken all the time in any flavor that is red. If you mix some curing salt with it the chicken will toughen up. A few fresh shrimp put in a blender with a quarter cup of oil is a good sauce to let them soak in. Can also use sardines instead of the shrimp. Gives the chicken a very fishy smell. Its the only bait I use. Cheap and simple.

[@PalmettoCats]

That sounds awesome! I’ll have to try that.

If I use raw chicken breast and do the Jell-O method we just just put it in strawberry jelo do you think I should add garlic salt to it I’m using it for catfish bait

[@PalmettoCats]

I don’t think it matters. Since this video, I’ve caught them on just plain chicken.

[@davidray3558]

Kevin, we use chicken when we have no sun fish or shad. We've managed to catch some respectable size blue cats on raw chicken breast when water temps are higher. This does not seem to work as well when the water temps go below 70F🌡I think it has something to do with the reduced scent being released in the colder water temps. As always, nice job. Keep up the good work and GROW THE SHOW!

[@PalmettoCats]

David Ray that seems like a plausible Theory, This is the first time I’ve ever tried it. Thank you for your support

[@Joe_Goofball]

Might it be that because at lower temperatures cold-blooded critters metabolism slows way down, and larger bait would take too long to digest?

[@PalmettoCats]

Could be

You should Richard. It's really popular to drag backwards with pontoons. It takes a little more work, but if you have a couple of drift socks and/or a good trolling motor, it's a little easier to manage.
