Hey I'm new to catfishing, but i'm starting to get into it more and more. Can you explain to me exactly what you did?Were you using circle hooks? Was your line tight? And how tight was your drag set? Sorry for all the questions, but like i said i'm new!
Hey Arkie, I dont know if you already are a member But the Greatest catfishing website i have found is Catfish1.com........Teamcatfish is one of the sponsers!! Check it out sometime if your not already a member!!!
to keep it on the hook get good dippin tubes chill the bait in the water before u cast start your fishing right before night and through the night they are more active
Secret-7 is still out performing others in my area - but keeping it on the hook is difficult - it works best when fishing in a 'light' current, (channels like current - with slip cork 1 ft off bottom)
I use #4 dough hooks if current not too bad - other timesthe 'furry thang' on a #2 treeble hook - with slip cork
or use magic bait cube - flattened out on bottom of treble then flour on fingers to apply Secret-7 on top
Tip: See my other videos - re: slip cork setup - using magic bait trick
Most good places are in swallow water so if I was thinking of night fishing - I might think about using noodles (or jugs) tied to stumps - on the right - immediately after going under the bridge. I've seen 'floating' noodle fishermen catch catfish in that area - since water is deeper than in some other area's (just a hunch - I only yoyo in shallow water when it's not so hot i.e. no experience at this of year
hey arkie i caught 3 on secret 7 today with many furry thang bait holders, i still want to come out there and catfish maybe we can meet up next week and fish???
hey arkie i went fishing today and caught 3 on secret 7 with minny furry thing s , im still wannt to come out there and catfish maybe i can meet up with you out there next week???
Went fishing earllier - figured I had missed fish - cause they were biting when I got there yesterday e.g. was going to get 'jump start' = catch a ton - WRONG - fished 1.5 hours (started at 4:30PM) - nothing worked and it was HOTTER than yesterday (oh well hope they are back tomorrow :)
In this heat and the hot water -- IMHO the deepest hole you can find (cooler water). In my case, I look for the coolest place (shade) for me (bridge) - and hope the catfish are there on the same day as I am :)
That is the bad thing - bait does not stay on very well - even when I keep it in cooler - add flour. I use spring treble hooks but size 4 is largest I found and fish swallow hook (often) I've ordered some 'furry things' and other dip bait holders that 'MAY' work better
I fish directly beside under boat - lower bait slowly - helps keep it on hook (some times use slip corks but don't 'cast' far)
We need to convice someone local to stop the bait - shipping cost are TERRIBLE
Will it work for all cats?

Forgot to mention - it's video called bait hook setup - plus I mention magic bait trick (mixing bait) in other videos.
Also I fish in water 11 ft deep in about 12 ft deep so I don't have to cast / worry about keep bait on hook.
bottom line : keeping bait on hook depends on conditions / tools - but catfish still like Secret-7 around here
