It seems once I got my new fish finder I have lost my natural fishing instincts. I've gotten skunked on Waco my last 3 trips for catfish. Need help and advice. Used shad last time first in 6 fow in temple at the middle bosque. No bite there so I moved to the old dam once again no bite there.

I have used chicken breasts soaked in dead red, worms, and shad but not much luck. What time of day are the cats feeding and where in the heck are they? I usually fish in the evening unless it's a weekend.

PS I have an open seat in my boat if someone wants to show me how it's done.

i fished airport park all friday nite caught 3 small ones on jugs i wish i also knew whats going on.

Well it's good to know that I'm not alone. What did you use for bait and how deep were you fishing?

I was drifting the other night along the east bank, north of the old dam but not to the channel that goes under lakeshore. I picked this spot because it was the only place on the lake out of the high winds. Caught a half dozen channels and a small blue. All caught on punch bait. Probably would have done better but got over a mess of crappie and decided to fill the cooler. The cats were in about 25-30 cow caught about half a crank off the bottom.

What are your thoughts for fishing this weekend? With all the heavy ran where should I fish? I hear that after a good rain the river mouths can be good but that didn't work last time so I may try deeper where the water is clearer.

No idea, not generally a cat fisherman I wish in knew more about it though

Fish the flood waters coming in. Find the muddy water that's flowing and find the fish. Use cut bait.
