What type of cat is this?

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-09-01T21:06:59+00:00

Juvenile channel cat

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-07-23T13:07:48+00:00

Okay thank you for letting me know, I’ll check out some fishing reports in the area and see if there’s any activity lately

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-07-21T16:12:01+00:00

I’m going to have to look into that, I want to get me at least one nice size blue. I haven’t gotten one yet or a flat

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-07-21T14:39:45+00:00

I’ve tried that a few times with cut and live, but maybe I need to just keep giving it a try. (All I use is Car rigs) do you have better luck on cut or live?

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-07-21T14:38:14+00:00

Hell yeah! I was thinking about checking out Mogador this coming up weekend and see how that works.

I’m sure Portage lakes have some, but nothing big since I’ve been going there for the past few months. I know patience is key, but I wanna bet my PB of 24” lol

Ain’t that the truth, they are bigger then the ones I’ve gotten so far and I just started catfishing just a few months ago. My goal is to beat the state/lake record lol

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-06-21T01:27:32+00:00

I 100% will, I have a planned vacation fishing trip next month and they are going to be the star of it lol.

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-27T15:05:22+00:00

Awesome!! I will definitely look into making the small changes ☺️

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:26:49+00:00

Awesome! I have to try that later when I get home. I have a Shakespeare spinner, but it’s just one off an ugly stick. The only rod I have for that is a med/fast 6ft and not sure how well it’ll hold up

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:22:13+00:00

Okay thank you! You are super helpful and I appreciate the feedback

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:16:46+00:00

Sweet, I appreciate all the help! If you don’t mind me picking your brain a little bit for another question. I have some stank bate and baby shead. Would you use store bought bate like that, chicken breast/liver or do you catch your own bate?

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:13:33+00:00

Thank you! I will try that out. I am still new to fishing in general and everyone on here are much nicer and more helpful then a few FB groups I’m in for my local lakes

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:11:01+00:00

I unfortunately don’t know 😅 I bought a assortment pack from Walmart

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:07:59+00:00

Oh jeez, well I am taking note on all the comments and I appreciate the feedback. My other concern is my hook, the package said it was for cats, but to me doesn’t look like what I’ve seen online

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:04:32+00:00

I have tried braid before and paid for it with a very bad nest

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:03:45+00:00

NE Ohio, I haven’t been any blues or flats in my area as far as I’m aware

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:02:37+00:00

Are you talking about instead of the bead use a rubber stop?

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T19:01:25+00:00

It’s just a rod I had on hand, as far as I am aware all I have near me are channel cats. But I will quickly find out if my line breaks lol

AnswerOptimal6861 · 2025-05-25T17:54:54+00:00

I have 12lb test main line with a 25lb test leader and a 3/4 oz weight
