Blockade running was fairly successful during the US Civil War. These were primitive naval times for sea going vessels. At night, for example, stopping a blockade running vessel was almost impossible. Experts to this day dispute whether the Union's blockade was a significant factor in the combination of factors that led to the South's surrender. As far as the most profitable items that slipped past the blockade, these were luxury items such as perfumes or precious gems.
