3. Catfish
These are, by far, my favorite fish to fish for specifically, and for many reasons. For starters, they are one of my favorite fish to eat, but also they can be found in pretty much any body of water other than ones you would find in Antarctica. The number three on our list of easiest fish to catch – catfish – are also mostly bottom feeders and tend to be scavengers when it comes to food, so they will eat just about anything. I’ve never had much luck catching catfish with any kind of lure, although it is possible. I’ve always gone more with chicken livers. The smell seems to lure them in. But you could bait your hook with just about anything, cast it in and sooner or later a catfish will come along and try to eat it.
