Hey there TFF,
I've been through the forums up and down, managed to set up my first tackle box on a budget, along with snagging two rod and reel combos for a bargain (One for catfishing, and one for panfishing). I've been out and about on the waters all over the DFW area, from Lake Grapevine to Lake Ray Hubbard. All I've managed to catch is a small 6 in. channel cat at lake grapevine. My question is, where should I be looking when I wanna catch channel cats? What about sunfish? Also, how do you keep your lines from snaggin? Closest lake to me is Lake Arlington, but I don't mind the drive up to lakes as far as Lewisville. I also can't afford to take a boat out into the deeper waters, so I'm restricted to bank fishin, creeks, and rivers.
Any advice, even unrelated is appreciated. Thanks yall.
