Question for Capt.Mike/catfishermen

BassinID · 05-17-09, 02:49 AM

Well, I am planning on heading out for my first catfishing trip of the year. I will be fishing a big river, which usually has moderate to fast current. The flow is currently at 65,000 cfs from 45,000 cfs. The water temp is 55 degrees f. I will be targeting channel cats and am planning on trying chicken livers and cutbait. If anyone has experience and would like to suggest the best types of water and depths to look for, as well as non-live bait suggestions or rigging tips for this time of year I would appriciate it. (its illeagle to use live bait here)
Also I will be fishing about one two three miles up from the confluence of another large river, where both turn into the backwater for a resevoir.
