[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2706400, member: 15054"] when I river fish with moving water in a boat I will sometimes tie a monofilament line to a water bottle I just finished drinking and tie 1 hook to the bottom of the line. Put my name and address on the bottle bait it up and toss it over and watch it. Many times that jug gets a hit before my poles do. I will highly second the catfish belly meat or even head and near the tail meat. I have seen where shad were producing a few fish bet the fishing was slow... then stick on some catfish meat and haul them in. If you let the bait soak for too long it becomes unattractive. When I pole fish I change bait in the river about every 45 minutes or sometimes sooner. I started running my trot lines at Webberfalls in the Arkansas river at 45-60 minutes. I put more fish in the boat like that than if I wait 4 hours. Those river fish will leave the trotline all slimy and no fish if you allow them too much time on. All this fishing talk .. I need to get the hitch on my 57 chevy so I can pull my boat to the Arkansas river [/QUOTE]
