[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 3012530, member: 15527"] Deer Slayer, does this also pertain to clear water lakes, where you can see your lures at a depth of 3 to 4 feet? I have caught a lot of blue cats over 20 pounds, and I do not remember ever catching a big blue cat in less than 40 feet of water. Flat head and channel cats, I catch them in just a few feet of water, down to maybe 15 feet at the most. Blue cats though, I've caught them down to 80 feet. For the most part though, I only fish deep holes for blue cats because I have always had my best luck doing so. I flew my ultralight to Grand Lake this weekend, and I talked to a couple of old timers to had boated over 10 blue cat, with the smallest one weighing in at 36 pounds and the biggest one was 67 pounds. These fish were caught in 40+ feet of water... Dan45, I may have to try shrimp again, since it's been probably been 20 years or so since I have used it. I was given the herring, and thought I would try it and see what happens. The guys I was talking too this weekend, used small chunks of fileted carp for bait, and they said that was all they used... I've coated garlic wieners in cod liver oil before and have caught many many channel cats off of them... [/QUOTE]
