The nightcrawler worm has caught about every variety of freshwater fish you can think of and many people still fish with them. When anglers here fish for catfish they almost exclusively use dead bait, live bait or a prepared bait. I couldn't give you a percentage but I bet there are plenty of Muskie fisherman who use live bait, Spike might better answer that question. I guess most consider it more of a challenge to catch a fish with a artificial bait. Yes, we are privileged to have so many resources at our disposal.
Hey Dan

Them fellas fishing for cats with bait have got it all wrong. Fly fishing is the way to go, a wooly bugger on a 5wt . Just a little tip I picked up off Lincoya whilst I was in his company , glad a 30lb'er didnt grab it though.
