I'm going fishing on canyon in about a hour and was gonna ask what rig to use to not get hung? I'm out of chum and I need to get some shad. All the bait shop has is frozen. I'm gonna try drift fishing with a bobber. Any help will be appreciated.

Well, I'm a little late with help but, If your are drifting, find area's that have few hang-ups and have rock/mussels around. Anywhere from 8' - 30'. Cut bait normally.
If you are fishing around hang-ups and trees then I anchor and fish Liver under a slip float. 3'-20' normally.
The catfish on Canyon school and travel around the lake. You must go hunting. If they are there you will get a bite in under 30 minutes.
Summer time on Canyon means rec traffic (aka idiots) so get there at sun-up and leave early.
Hope it helps.

Check out some drift-fishing videos on YouTube There is a lot that shows how to rig up for sucess
If it ain't broke don't fix it...but go ahead and work on it anyway.....
