As far as live bait goes, I like to use BIG Goldfish, like this one

I also like using anything natural swimming in the same water as the cats I am targeting. Please understand that here in Ohio this normally means you must catch these baits on a hook & line & NOT by a cast net. But I'll use Bass, Saugeyes, etc...

Some live bait that CAN be caught by cast net include suckers & chubs as these pics show.

As far as cut bait goes:

I use shad such as this more than anything else.

I will also use skipjack, if I have them.

When times get real tough, I will sometimes use sheephead (freshwater drum)
