    Default Catfish on artifcial baits


    Over the years I've caught Catfish on Spinnerbaits, crank baits, Plastic worms, and Jig-n-frog while Bass fishing. Not unusual to catch them Crappie fishing either. I lost count on the Channels that I caught on a tube jig this summer. I had lots break my 8 lb line on my 12' Buck's jig pole. Saturday I landed my 3rd Flathead of the year Crappie fishing, it was about 6 lbs.
    Do you catch many whiskers on artifical baits ?

    We catch them all the time while fishing for crappie. The last three times out I had to land three by hand since they wouldn't fit in my crappie net and I forgot the throw the large net in the boat. It's harder than you would think using a 14' pole and being by yourself with a 10 pound cat.
    The large net is now staying in the boat...LOL!

    Yep, have caught a good many channels throughout this year longlining. Usually just one or two every now and then though.
