Cat fishing tips please
Ok so I am going cat fishing hopefully this Saturday if nothing comes up. I'm going to Lake Jordan, NC. Problem is that I have never really done this before. Spent most of my life buried in books and never really had any time for fun. Was wondering if you guys could give me some tips please.
Thanks! |

Re: Cat fishing tips please
the stinkier the bait the better. i use 2 day old macro..........ugh the sh*t stinks but it works like a charm.....dont waste you money on those color jars they dont work. also if you can get your hands on P Line its better cause they can see regular line. P Line turns invisible, that is why it cost what it cost but well worth it. I think $30 for 200yards.

 One thing is certain. You do not need a boat like this.

Re: Cat fishing tips please
I'm with Carbeaux, chicken livers always worked great for me. Catfish aren't particularly picky about what they eat they are just a little on the lazy side and don't want to work very hard for their dinner. I've never had any luck with artificial lures, although I have caught a few accidently while bass fishing using artificials. Also I wouldn't waste my money on the expensive fishing line, the best places to catch catfish is in water that you can't see through [can you say muddy?]. A good quality 10 lb. monofilament will work just fine.
Best places to find catfish is in slow moving, warm, murky water. You don't even need a float, just toss your bait out, let it sit on the bottom and wait. Good luck!!

Re: Cat fishing tips please
Thanks for the tips guys. One other question: Someone told me that you catch more fish on a cloudy/rainy day. Is this true?
