You can catfish many different ways. You can let the bait sit on the bottom, you can rig kind of carolina deal where the sinker hits the bottom and the bait suspends. You can also use floaters to fish suspended. Then, you can troll, use current, all sorts of things. Use a live bluegill and let it swim around
