Catfish locations

[mrpike1973]

Hi headed up to the chain on Friday. Can anyone tell me the locations as of now? are they deep, shallow or by bridges? Not looking for your spot I just keep striking out lately when I go up there. The wife loves catching those kitties Thanks for any tips.

They are everywhere this time of the year.    Seen them as shallow as a foot.   Pick any shoreline on horseshoe.   Really.

I always use white tube jigs and minnows in the summer.

Thanks for the info. Do you just cast the tube jig for them or under a float? How big of a jig should I use? never heard of this before Thank you.

yes with a bobber and they will find you.    I set the depth at 5ft in 8 ft of water.   Caught 4 in 20 minutes while trying to catch crappies off the dock on tuesday.

smallest tube jig they sell.   They are about 1" long.   Cats love the white ones.
