We eye hook ours so they can’t see and they try to swim constantly and are unaware if a catfish goes to eat them so you get better hook up ratios too

That’s cause he’s sitting on the bottom. Put a float on it so he stays suspended. He’ll move all around trying to get on the bottom. Float or suspended.

the point of live bait is it's going to imitate a dying bait fish easier to catch

try using an egg weight with a hole of the center and have a tie off where you want the distance for the bait to swim and makes it where the fish don't feel the weight holding them down
