Live bait fishing is Illegal in utah with the excetion of nightcrawlers and crayfish in the body of water you are catching the crayfish from(you may not transport live crayfish away from the body of water they were caught in)

[cool][#0000ff]The top four baits for cats seems to be crawlers, minnows, carp meat and shrimp. After that it is a matter of both availability and creativity.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I am attaching a copy of a writeup I did on catfish baits. Hopefully it will give you some ideas.[/#0000ff]

In addition to those listed by TD, I have had success with cut bait from white bass and perch. (Not legal to use these everywhere, but where legal they work well).

Thanks for all the responses I usally Fish for catfish when i use bait, Ive heard of alot of people at utah lake catching big ones on Shrimp. So i think i have to try that. kentofnsl, i think that you can use non game fish for bait like carp and bullheads, Maybe whitebass because theres so many of them at ut lake.

[size 1]Under "Bait" in the current Utah Fishing Proclamation one finds:[/size]
[size 1]"Game fish or their parts may not be used, except for the following:... Dead yellow perch may be used as bait only in: Deer Creek, Fish Lake, Echo, Gunnison, Hyrum, Johnson, Jordanelle, Mantua, Mill Meadow, Newton, Pineview, Rockport, Starvation, Utah Lake, and Willard Bay reservoirs... Dead white bass may be used as bait only in Utah Lake, and the Jordan River." Be aware that at Pineview Reservoir, "Cut bait must not be larger than one inch in any dimension and no more than one piece per hook"[/size]
