Quick take
A ready-to-use catfish punch bait made with real shad that stays on the hook in running water.
CJ's 14 oz Shad punch bait is made for catfish and goes on a treble hook pushed in with a stick, so the bait never needs to be handled by hand. Pulled out at an angle, it forms a compact wad that holds in current, and it needs no refrigeration.
Best for
- Catfish fishing in rivers and creeks with current
- Anglers who prefer not to handle live bait
- Bank and dock fishing setups
Skip if
- You prefer live bait presentations
- You fish clear water for non-catfish species
Strengths
- Made with real shad, not artificial flavoring or additives
- Stays on the hook and will not wash off in heavy current
- Never spoils and requires no refrigeration or special storage
Trade-offs
- Very strong smell that may be off-putting to some anglers
- Designed exclusively for catfish, not effective for other species
- Punch-on application requires practice and treble hook technique
