I don’t get a lot of free time to fish, but I’ll often make the time after a big rain because I know that I can usually catch a mess of channel cat if the creeks are running hard and muddy. I’ll set up at the mouth of a creek, and I’ll fish on the bottom with worms. As a general rule, I’ll catch a good mess of fish. If I were throwing a top water lure, I’d go home with an empty stringer. Basically, learn about the fish you’re targeting, and I bet that you’ll have more success.</p></blockquote><p></p>
