Anything from nightcrawlers to chicken livers.I have had good luck with shrimp,live/dead shad or any other cutbait.

night crawlers are the best but if you decide on dead bait you cant beat calves liver.

I like shrimp and sucker early in the season and then use cut goldeye and live leopard frogs as the season progesses. You can use shrimp all yr but I find you catch alot of drum and bullhead, but somehow the drum have grown to like cut goldeye too.[:'(]
I fish in areas w/heavy current so I don't really like livers or crawlers.
