So I'm too impatient to catfish; bores the hell out of me. I know we have some in our lake but the HOA will have kittens if I float milk jugs out there.
So instead I found a duck decoy floating loose on the channel at the lake of the ozarks last weekend and I'm going to use it. So the next question is....how the hell do I run a trot line?
I was thinking of just tying a 5 lb weight to a rope, tying about 5 treble hooks to the weight and throwing some catfish crud on each one, then tie the rope to the duck and throw it in the water. Is there anything more complicated than that?
