Fun Things to do with Catfish Bait Other Than Catch Catfish
by Joe Cermele
For all of you counting down to Mischief Night (19 more nights, by the way), here's a story that will help if you're bored with throwing toilet paper around and egging your neighbors' houses. Leave it to college kids to finally capitalize on the similarities between catfish bait and good ol' fashioned cow turds.
From the website of WKBTX:
Texas Tech officials "strongly condemned" vandalism that targeted a Texas A&M bus before the Aggies played the Red Raiders, but said fish bait, not manure, was used in the incident...
Before Saturday night's game, A&M athletic director Bill Byrne said that manure went "from one end to the other" in one bus and was spread on the outside of three others.
Note that the story does not specify what kind of fish bait was used, but we anglers know, don't we? There have been several instances where someone has rubbed me the wrong way and I thought it would be fitting to slip a couple blood and cheese nuggets under the seat of their car. I mean, if you grind that stuff into a carpet, it ain't coming out easy. But I've never actually followed through. I guess I'm too nice.
Has anyone else thought about playing foul with cat bait, or better yet, actually done it?

Left some in the trunk of my car for about a week one summer, not very nice, that was about two years ago and there is STILL a hint of that smell!
When I was a teenager, my brother and I used to wrap fire crackers in dough bait and cause all kinds of trouble. It was a great way to clear a patio.
Seems like some moldy old stink bait would work even better. I did that to myself one time by accident. I had some very old chicken liver I was keeping in the fridge and it didn't smell in there. Put it in my car, drove out to Dicks to pick up a few more weights before going out to the lake. By the the time I got back in my car it smelled like someone had put a dead decaying opossum in the front seat of my car. But it was just the moldy old chicken liver in the trunk. Couldn't even touch the stuff, had to throw it out and get fresh. My car still smelled when I was driving home from fishing several hours after it had been taken out. Nasty stuff. After that incident I had a whole new level of respect for people who brew their own stink bait.
I once took some dip bait and rubbed it all over my buddies fishin pole and all over his tackle box because he had left a stinky surprise in my bathroom oh and i rubbed it on his car door handles and the funniest thing about it was he grabbed his pole smiled said man that was a good one washed his hand and grabbed his reel and did same thing until he was furious because i put it on everrrrryyyyy thing
I once sprayed my friend with garlic scent, and it stuck with him all day. I told him it would keep away vampires, but he wasn't happy about it.
I found a couple old bags of stinkbait in my garage this past summer. Took them to work & dumped them into the heat exchangers for the office air conditioners.
Whole lotta dry-heaving going on in that office, while i stayed safe in the machine shop.
I use to work in sporting goods at walmart and I would play hide the stink bait with the other departments. The best place to hide the opened container was under the base boards of the shelf. It was funny to watch people's expression as they walked by and could never find where it came from. I have also fired balls of it out of a paintball gun.
I left some of this stuff in a bag that I thought was sealed in my tackle bag over a weekend. Never did get out the smell.
No..., but I guarantee you that in the old office that I used to work in, if one were to put a plate of those, with a little chocolate syrup drizzled over them out on the breakroom table.......they would be gone in a little of no time! Not that I would ever do anything like that.
Had a bully in high school who aways picked on the small kids. He left his windows cracked abit in his brand new 82 Camaro. Well 5 bottles of doe pee, and three bottles of skunk was sprayed in his car via some syringe's. All over the roof liner, cloth seats, and in the carpet. His new nick-name was stinky!
Once put a carp under the seat of an old plymouth that was setting in the yard of one of our redneck neighbors. By mid spring the next year the maggots had that sucker rockin'. I would of love to been ther when he opened the door! Didn't take him long to send it to the junkyard though.
I used to leave my leftover stinkbait in my roommates room in college and complain that his room always smelled terrible. Then he found the stuff and I had to lock the door to my room at all times just to be safe...

Back in the high school days, I would get stink bait wet it enough to become sticky and launched them in the public bus we wrote home.It worked great when the bus was full and there were no seats available. Got it from Crocodile Dundee.
