re: Jug Line Bait

So, I’ve been running jugs this year with the kids and tried fresh Shad, bream, cut buffalo; and the best have been something I read online. Cut chicken breast and hot dogs; formula has been a bag of cherry jello, garlic powder(both under a $1 at Walmart) mixed in ziplock bag. A big flat of breasts is about $9:50, hot dogs are $1 a dozen. Not inexpensive, but we catch quite a bit of catfish on them. All the flathead have been on bream, but the best for the blues and channels Have been the chicken. Thought the cut bait would do a lot better, and maybe at night, but running them with the kids, the chicken and hotdogs have just produced the best for us...
