182 FEED THE KITTY

Trophy blue catfish relish fresh baitfish, including shad, skipjacks, and blueback herring. Use what’s common to the water you’re fishing—most anglers catch their own with Sabiki rigs or cast nets.

LIVE BAIT Where there’s little current, use a 6- to 9-inch live baitfish. Hook it through both nostrils, or up into the lower jaw and out the nose, or under the dorsal fin to keep bait lively. However, dorsal hooking lets it swim more freely, which can be an advantage in still water.

CUTBAIT This works well in current, which washes scent downstream, drawing catfish from long distances. Cut the fillets of a fresh skipjack herring into chunks.
