Do you ever set lines when the water is low? Again, im talking about a small bayou... Here are two pictures of it when the water is up, just a little below the tops of the bank. The second picture is a highway bridge's pilings. How would you set the bridge, I would think bridges would be good  
If you can either quickly or quietly switch out shells, you can bring home almost anything.

Anyone? Would you prefer to set lines across the current or with the current? I would think catfish would be behind the pilings for the current break, at least that's what I gather from reading.
There are no other fishermen on this water, so across the current isn't a problem.

The water went down enough for me to walk in the water on the sides of the channel where it was only 3-4 feet deep under the bridge.
It's definitely firm soil, gravel, and cypress roots. I'm fired up, because I keep reading about how catfish like gravel bottoms so much.
Sure would love to get a flathead!
