So, I may try some jugging for catfish. I have some questions. I have YouTubed it, but it didn't explain it much.


I know I need line, jugs, bait and hooks.

Do I need some sort of weight at the bottom?. Maybe a brick?

I let mine float around till they get to really shallow water.
I use bolts on them as they are cheaper than an equivalent lead weight. About 1 oz.

I am going to put some jugs together this week and give it a try. they can float and do their thing while I go crappie fish

That place we weren’t able to go far enough south to is perfect for that and/or a trotline in the timber while you run the boat around looking for other fish
