Catfishing (real fishing)

You live near a good spot… try below the Rothschild dam.  Slip sinker/ Carolina type rig.  Nice sized circle hook.  Piece of cut sucker.  Or, get some stink bait… Triple S, Secret 7, or something similar.  Check YouTube on proper rigging.  

Live in the Wausau area (Schofield) and am  looking for any advice on catching a few Catfish. I fish for just about everything else but have never targeted Catfish but would like too give it a shot. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Fished 645-9 with Norman and Michelle .  They drove up from Waukegan to fish the Corridor.  We tossed Power Punch, CJ’s punch, crawlers, and chicken liver at them.  Cheese power punch was most active.  But CJ and chicken liver also produced.  They were still it when I left at 9.  Had 12 at that time.

Well... I'M BACK!!! (hope ya enjoyed the BREAK from my "cattin" ramblin's!") ;-p

Broke in my "new Merc outboard" today and it purred like a kitten (channel cat?) ;-p  ME thinks I'll be putting a FEW water miles on it in retirement! Took daughter's husband's Best Man (Conway) out on nearby Little Lake Butte des Morts this AM and he had a (wait for it...) CAT-TASTIC TIME!!! :-0 He wrangled and CPR-ed two 6 pounders while I chipped in with a fun fightin' 7 pounder (all on Triple S BLOOD formula). Before calling it quits this AM, hit a spot below the Highway 141 bridge  (where I got my PB cat (15#) earlier this summer. Not to be outdone, Conway ties into a (dramatic pause...) 15.5 pound channel catfish!!! Was the 20 minute long tussle memorable? ("Does a catfish have whiskers/ barbels???") ;-))

Yep... thinking Conway now knows WHY "The TUG is the DRUG and CATFISHING'S the CURE!!!"

Next up? A FUN-FILLED STURGEON FISHING SESSION in WI Dells on Tuesday with Catitude (Rick) and Eric (fishin' friend from the Dells). Yep... 2 upcoming sturgeoning sessions the next few weeks + numerous cattin' sessions on LLBM! Drop me a line (message) if ya wanna fish for some RIVER MONSTERS before the snow flies!

​HAPPY CATTIN', ALL!!!

Sorry about the typo
I meant Triple "S"
Still Looking for online And Stores to buy
I did see the post for "3.5 gallon every 3 years", Thanks I will lookinto that too

Wait, Packer… did you mean Triple S?  If so, carry on.

Packer… I stay away from XXX.  That stuff will harm your brain.  Immoral dangerous stuff… plus, I have a work phone and do most of my internet use at work… They block those sites!

For Triple S try here. I buy a 3.5 gallon container every 3 years.

Took my friend out this morning.  We hit the shores of the Corridor on the Wisconsin River in Stevens Point at 630 am.  Had a fish on within about 10 minutes.  By 730 we had a one man limit of 10.  We used both cheese and blood power punch.  I won’t give the Catitude play by play, but the cats definitely preferred the cheese.  We kept fish until we coul no longer close the lid of his cooler… combined that turned out to be 15 fish.  He said that is plenty.  We then trekked back to the vehicle. Fished a total of about 2 hours… not a bad morning.
