Nonstop night bite. I landed 11 catfish with two quick double ups and a 20 lb kicker, all on grape chicken and eel. I set up in a new spot, dropped fresh rigs, and started alternating baits, eel then chicken. Rods bent almost right away. Four fish came in the first 10 minutes, then a flurry of hits kept me busy all night.
I show the simple bait that worked, chicken gizzards soaked in grape Kool-Aid. Tough on the hook, perfect for steady bites. I also ran American eel, including a head piece that produced. I walk through my basic catfish rig, 8/0 hook, 5 in rattle, 8 oz weight, and how I place the hook through the tendon on gizzards so it stays put.
Highlights include two fast doubles, a strong run in shallow water on grape chicken, and the biggest of the night at 20 lb right at the 4 hour mark. I share what I saw on sonar, how I rotated lines, and why I keep baits wet to stay on fish.
