Any of you old timers out there ever made a meal cake for fish baskets? Lately I have been using a mixture of catfish feed and laying mash but meal ake will last longer.

I know that they have molasses in it and that they are baked. My wifes bread use to look like a meal cake, she baked the bread so hard that water wouldn't soak through.

My Grandpaw would use cottonseed meal cake when he ran short of his own recipe. Just seed stock after oil pressing.
Or: Mix plain corn meal-NOT self rising-with salty water to a heavy paste (bout like wet concrete). Then, depending on what was available, he would add 1 cup per gallon of mix either Sweet Feed, powdered molasses, or chopped horse mint. Heavily gob in pure lard to a cast iron skillet and rub it all over bout a quarter inch thick. Add the mix to the pan, spoon on a table spoon more lard, and bake @ 400-450 (hot oven) till it turns brown.
I never saw him pull an empty basket.
