I've been working on a back track to use while "Cat Fishing" and playing the harp, but so far none of the standard style's worked.
Any suggestions...!

Clip a small brass bell on the line up near the tip of the rod, that way you can spend less time watching the bobber and more time practicin' on that harp...

Best bait fer catfish is the old tried and true aged beef heart on a treble hook IMO. Age it in a mayonnaise jar covered with cheesecloth on the back porch for several days. Phew. But the big cats love it and it proves to be quite resilient out in the water, that way you get even more time to drink beer, er, practice that harp.

Incidentally, when night fishing on the riverbank (is there any other way to catch catfish?) I have found that music really attracts the cats. So does the prerequisite bum's bonfire. Try a boombox turned almost all the way up or as high as you can stand it anyway. Awhile back we discovered a fishin' hole where all the catfish seemed to prefer Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon with Steely Dan Aja as a close second...
