I used to catfish a lot with my family growing up then got into bass tournament fishing in my late teens for about 15 years and later crappie fishing about the last 15 years or so. Crappie fishing for me has been pretty slow this fall/winter so I decided to buy a few catfish rods and go back to some of my roots. Went for the first time in years a few days ago with a little success. Only gave them about an hour and a half of my time since I ran out of live well space. The largest was 35”-36” and guessing in the 20lb range.
