chicken livers

Forgot about livers, that could work

Livers are great.

If you can get hearts they work great and are much tougher than liver.

Yep livers...... Cut up some pantyhouse into squares and wrap the livers in them then hook'em. Liver won't come off the hook easily this way.

P.S. Make sure the wife isn't wearing said pantyhose at the time of cutting

I've read that you can cure chicken livers by cuttin them to the size wanted then spred them out on an old cooky sheet and cover them with garlic salt. After that, put them in the sun for at least six hours.

Putting the livers in the sun for several hours supposedly toughens them up. They get crusty on the outside. The garlic salt is nothing to do with the curing; rather, an increased attractant. They say catfish love it.

I've also read about Ivory soap though I have no idea how you make that stay on a hook.

livers were always the best for me if you can't use bream.

Once I was in a bind and stopped by the Wallmarks and got a bag of 100ct frozen, peeled skrimp tails. Did well.

I've always done well with cold worms
