Oh, I didnt see your location. I'm just wondering if they are still active in early spring up here in NC. It's been in the low 50s to mid 60s here lately.

Today went awful. I couldn't even catch bait in the three hours I was there. The water was up so the current was really strong. I also got my cast net ripped on a stump or something. All I caught was a small channel cat on a zoom u tailed worm. I'm Gunna keep trying though.
Don't give up I have faith in you. If you are using a trap just bring bait with you so you don't waste 3 hours trying to catch it.
Yeah, I'm going to try again tomorrow. I'll go to my bait creek first to get some chubs and sunnies for bait. It will be warmer and the water should be down a little more.
It won't work this time of year. It's cold in NC right now. That is a good idea though if I don't have one by summer. It will be a good way to find the good flathead hole too. There are some monster cats in that small river/big creek. I've caught a 42 pounder in it.
its times like these that i wish i lived in an area where you can just walk to a river and start fishing. gotta drive everywhere where i live.
