This weekend id fish shallow windblown banks. But waco has been kicking my tail this year so the opposite may be better. The only way to really know is to get out there and eliminate water until you find them.

yea that makes since... Iv always heard of santee cooper rigs and Carolina rigs for deep cats, do you do the same thing shallow? Or different rigs? Also, what would I look for when fishing shallow? A shallow flat with deep water nearby or wood or what?

Buy you a drift sock and drift fish for them off the points and windblown banks. Use the Santee rig. The key to catching cats while drifting is to drift SLOW. Use two socks in heavy wind. By drifting you can cover a lot of water. Each time you start a new drift change something if you haven't had any bites (depth, etc). When you think you are drifting slow enough slow it down some more. Try to keep your shad alive until you cut them to put them on the hook. Catfish like fresh shad the best.
