Go below the Richland Chamber's dang into the Trinity River and set limb lines when the river is high or on the rise.  LOTS of big yellow cats and big blues.  The very best bait for big yellows is a live [b]bass that is about 10-12 inches long[/b].  Not that Smokin baby would EVER use a bass for bait, but yep a birdy told me they are EXCELLENT bait.

In Texas that would be some expensive bait [i][b]if caught [/b] [/i] by the game warden.......

[/quote]  Haven't trotlined much.  I think that is a Republican sport, along with noodling.      :o

Could be...the only problem is that for every Republican trotliner there are several dems waiting on the bank for them to clean, cook and serve them their free fish!

I threw a few throw lines out this weekend, since the weather ruined the baseball tournament. The Brazos is full of drop offs and with all of the rain, the river was rather high.  I fished between Brenham and Navasota, and between the thick mud all over the banks, and the water being higher than usual, it was a little more difficult.  On 2 different days, I threw 3 lines out with 4 hooks on each, using large gold fish for bait.  On the first day I caught a nice 32lb flathead and a about a 2' gar.  On day 2, I caught a large turtle and a small flathead (maybe 2 or 3lbs), but it had been partially eaten. (probably by turtles or gar) I'll  try again in a week or two.

A lot of fishing talk on here but not any about my favorite kind.......trot lining.  Anyone else out there that catfishes?  I'm getting geared up for spring break, will be setting lines out soon.  Last year I mainly used cut bait (buffalo) and I slated the bluecats but ops won't bite cut bait. The yellow mudcat are hard to find anymore for bait but will concentrate on perch for the ops.

Just wanting some catfish talk.

My hubby got all of his trot lines out this past week and got everything ready.  He is going up the lake this weekend after the marathon to spend Spring Break with the guys fishing and doing 12 ounce curls.  He is going to live the high life and do little to nothing cept fish.

Been working on new boat.  New not meaning a sticker in the window either.....man been a lot of work.  Boat will be moved in a week come you know what or high water.  Fishing is about to start full spead ahead.  Things really don't get going good till snapper season opens anyway.  The winter and spring trips are usually less frequent due to weather and much farther out.

Coming soon!!!!!!
