We would mix gelatin with it, let it set then cut it in squares to bait hooks with. Was durn good catfish bait. That is old school fishing.

Are you kidding me???

Nope I'm not kidding you. I used blood for catfishing alot, it was a pretty good bait. Catfish loved it. I also used the chicken guts on drop lines, yoyos and trotlines. I grew up learning old school fishing.

I forgot about another type of fishing I like to do. That is going over to Turkey Creek at night under the bridge putting up a lantern on one side, then parking the boat on the other side and night fish for crappie. I can stay all night. Love it. Anyone ever done that?
