You guys are really staying on the fish all season. Man that's cool. You know what guys, I would love to get out on some early catfish. So if you got room for another angler to drag in some cats, let me know. Hey I hope you guys make the next meeting at Mr. D's, March 6th.
Hey are you using the shiners live or as cut bait? I have used them dead as cut bait and even whole but stepped on, to let the juices carry in the water. I haven't caught many on live minnows before. Of course crawlers, even on bouncers work, so lively minnows must have a time. Just curious.
Thanks for the catfishing report.
I have heard that before, but I haven't seen it yet. I have found that the big fish will smack a fresh cut fish quicker than a live minnow. But I have read that and would like to see the live minnows beat a fresh cut bait. I think the fresh cut bait sends out a great scent trail down stream that a hungry catfish can't stand.
Well good luck with the cats and please keep us posted. If I am not getting out, it is always great to hear someone is. And I learn a little all the time. Thanks..
