The Father-in-Law and I have been pulling cats off of the trotlines we have out consistently. I doubt it slows down anytime soon. The lake we fish is not huge, and is not public, but produces decent cats. Enough to keep us full and happy!

Great mess of fish you have, nice work.

Froman, why not use a pole ? Catfishing is more fun that way . Nimrod is full of Channels, they won't leave my Crappie jigs alone this week. We will target them in a couple of weeks over baited holes.

I love to fish Trotlines. And theres lots of days I can fish my 100 hooks and have 100+ lbs off them a night.

Lots Of Days We Catch 100 Lbs Over Baited Holes With A Pole.:d Trotlines Are Great If You Are Just Interested In Filling A Freezer.

nice looking cats what r u baiting the trotlines with

I can't wait for driving directions to the private lake you're fishing and the GPS coordinates for the trotline

Yes I also have a lot of days my wife and I can and have caught 100 lbs on rod and reel. And not over a baited hole. And that is in 3 hours.
But for fish frys. WE have a lot of them. That is takes 75 lbs of cleaned fish to feed them. And I like trot lines for those fish frys.
