Thats been around for many many years. 
And yes, it works, but crawfish is a lot cheaper out the ditch.

Although I've ALWAYS had better luck with using live/fresh dead bait (in particulary bait that the catfish of that area are already used to eating) catfish not only have 8 barbels that are basically long taste buds, but a lateral line (sensors arranged down the body that are constantly reading the water for food/vibration).. Soap works because of the oils that it puts out in the water...the catfish follow its trail, and being oppurtunistic, will eat it because it can't pass up a meal... I have heard that older soaps such as Octagon work better than our modern day soaps because of the higher oil content and less perfumes...Wouldn't hurt to try...
