How to fish Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait:

Catfishing is a rewarding and exciting pursuit, but it all starts with the right bait.

Mr. Whiskers Catfish Punch Bait by Whisker Seeker Tackle is a standout choice for prepared bait among anglers, designed to attract catfish with its strong scent and easy-to-use formula.

If you're new to punch bait or want to improve your technique, the following information will guide you through everything you need to know to fish successfully with Mr. Whiskers Catfish Punch Bait.

What Is Catfish Punch Bait?

Punch bait is a soft, sticky, cheese-based bait designed to be "punched" onto a hook. It's infused with strong attractants and fibers to enhance its scent and texture. Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait is specially formulated for long-lasting stickiness, making it an ideal choice for anglers who want to avoid constantly reapplying bait.

The bait gets its name from the process used to bait the hook. You “punch” the hook into the bait with a stick and then pull the hook out. Best of all, Mr. Whiskers Catfish Punch Bait sticks to a plain treble hook. You don’t need springs, sponges, tubes or worms.

Tips for Success with Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait:

• Fish Near Structure: Catfish often hide near submerged logs, rocks, and drop-offs. These areas provide shelter and ambush points for feeding, making them prime fishing spots.
• Be Patient: Sometimes catfish take a while to commit to the bait. It’s not uncommon to get very light bites so pay attention and set the hook as soon as there’s an indication of a bite. If you’re not catching fish it’s because you’re not fishing in the right area!

Why Choose Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait?

• Easy to Use: It clings to a plain treble hook without the need for sponges, tubes, or dip worms.
• Powerful Scent: The bait’s strong, pungent aroma spreads quickly in the water, drawing catfish in from long distances.
• Durability: Mr. Whiskers holds its form and stays on the hook well.
• Versatility: Whether you’re fishing in still waters, rivers, or reservoirs, Mr. Whiskers works in a variety of conditions to attract all types of catfish.
• Proven Results: Over 30 years of proven history catching catfish and used by more catfish guides than any other prepared bait.

Why Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait Stands Out

Compared to other baits that require additional gear like dip worms, tubes, or sponges, Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait is designed to stick directly to a plain treble hook. This simplicity saves time and effort while ensuring your bait stays in place. The strong scent, durability, and ease of use make it a top choice for seasoned catfish anglers, guides, and beginners alike.

Fishing with Mr. Whiskers Catfish Punch Bait from Whisker Seeker Tackle is a straightforward and effective way to catch catfish of all sizes. With the right gear, technique, and location, you’ll be reeling in catfish in no time. Whether you’re fishing in a lake, river, or pond, Mr. Whiskers will help you land more fish with less hassle.

A Step-by-Step Guide to 
Fishing with Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait

1. Prepare Your Gear
   Start by setting up your rod and reel. Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait is most effective (in most cases) when fished near the bottom, a treble hook with a split shot above it or a small ¼ to ½ ounce egg sinker is a great choice. The Whisker Seeker TomKat Ice Jigs also work great for fishing vertical presentations. If you prefer to fish with a slip bobber a smaller lightweight slip bobber is preferred and use a #3 split shot just above the hook.
   
   
2. Attach the Treble Hook
   Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait clings directly to a plain treble hook, making your setup simple. Attach a size #6 treble hook to the end of your line. This hook size is small enough to allow the catfish to grab the bait, but strong enough to land larger fish.
   
   
3. Punch the Hook into the Bait
   Use a punch tool or stick to apply the bait to the treble hook. Open the jar of Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait, and stir it with the punch stick to ensure the bait is evenly mixed. Insert your treble hook directly into the bait and use the stick to press the hook deep into the jar. Twist and pull it out quickly at an angle—this will ensure that the hook is fully covered with bait, with fibers and chunks sticking to the tines of the treble hook.
   
   
4. Cast Your Line
   Once your hook is loaded with bait, cast your line into your chosen fishing spot. Catfish often feed near the bottom of lakes, ponds, and rivers, so aim for areas with structure such as submerged logs, rocks, or drop-offs. In the summer you may find catfish suspended though.
   
   
5. Wait for the Bite
   After casting, wait patiently for a bite. Catfish often inspect the bait before committing, so you may feel light taps or small pulls on the line. Stay alert and set the hook at the slightest indication of a bite. Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait has a powerful scent that quickly disperses in the water, attracting catfish from a distance. Depending on the water conditions and how active the fish are, you could start getting bites within seconds and the more the scent spreads in the water the more fish will come looking for it.
   
   
6. Reapply Bait as Needed
   After a catch, rebait the hook. If you get a couple of bites and don’t set the hook, pull in and rebait and put more bait on the hook often. Mr. Whiskers Punch Bait holds up well on the hook, but it's a good idea to reapply the bait if it starts to wear off. Simply repeat the punching process to keep your treble hook fully loaded and effective. The more scent in the water the more fish will come looking.
