I'm in Georgia and I fish a small pond. The pond contains cats, but I never seem to catch any! I've use red wrigglers, minnows, and crickets. Should I try another bait type? Would stink baits work better?

it depends on the type of catfish are they channel, blues or flatheads. also in ponds try pork or a cheese bait.

during the hot months of summer here in ks i have use ol' roy soft and moisty beef and cheese flavor dog food its about 4 to 5 dollars for a box at wal-mart u gright et about 120 balls out of a package if i remember right theres 10 packages in a box also i use catfish charlie dip baits cheese shad and blood baits and sonny's blood also works well and  of course night crawlers and minnows  in the spring when the cats are starting to spawn i use crawdads the males will attack the crawdads to protect the eggs   chicken and turkey livers work well but have trouble keeping on the hook  with sonny's blood i take i take cheese whizzz and peanut butter and mix it together this alao works   pearch goldfish also works for the bigger flat and blues also i take bull heads and and let them bleed out into a 5 gallon bucket
