Spend a few evenings watching Mike Baker catfishing videos.   He'll show ya how it's done!  

 

i just watched one of his truman cat vids last night. ive instituted a few of his crappie trolling tips on my boat. i never paid any attention to the catfish ones....till now.

He's no rookie!  Nice gear with the right sized net.  Wonder if there's a gaff somewhere on that boat? 

Like his tackle too.  He's got a lot more stuff than little old me.

I'm a 50 pound braid guy to swivel or three way.  Then 20 pound mono to circle hook(s), weight etc.  As often as not, I'll set up with a 3 way, probably two foot dropper for weight.  On the hook side of the three way, two feet to first hook and then another two to the bottom hook.  Quality 3 way, swivels and circle hooks are a given.

my rigs now are 40lb braid to a barrel swivel with an egg sinker above the swivel. 15 or 25lb mono leader, santee cooper rigged with a float a few inches above the hook.
