Default fingerling catfish feed (easy to find) ideas needed

I am looking for some ideas to feed my golden catfish that is in my koi

It must be something that sinks fast because the koi seem to beat the
fingerling
to it all the time. I have heard of chicken liver (raw), anything else cheap
and easy to get?


Catfish are survivors, and can fend for themselves.

As a boy, I went to an old factory site that was flooded by the Mississippi
river in the 1940's. One old concrete basement was filled with crystal clear
water. There were about a dozen large catfish in there. They were skinny,
but at least 2 feet long. We were thinking about swimming in there, but
those catfish looked too hungry.
