I have decided to take up a new hobby, fishing. As a kid I used to fish for catfish in Pa. everyday.

I live close to Smithville lake and don't have a boat so I am bank fishing. I have tried a few different lures (jigs with different colors on both a number 2 hook and some of those horizontal weighted things). Forgive my ignorance on this. I have been fishing across from the camp branch entrance where all the trees come up out of the water, with no luck. I have been fishing 2-4ft down with a bobber.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I really don't think I know what I am doing.

Thanks.

Steve
