Catfishing at night

Can someone give me some tips on nighttime Catfishing? About 15 years ago I went with a guy who put some sort of pellets out durring the day in shallow water Lake Marion). We went back that night and caught a bunch, but I can’t remember what kind of pellets or what we used for bait. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheap dog food will work. You can toss it around an area, or put it in a paper bag, add a couple of rocks/bricks for weight, roll the bag shut, and toss it in to keep the dogfood more centralized.
