We’re now well into the fall trophy blue catfish bite and reports are coming in of some big catfish landed. Veteran guide George Rule at Tawakoni suggests fishing with chunks of fresh shad or carp or buffalofish. “Drift fishing this time of year can be extremely effective. I like to use a “Santee Rig” for drift fishing.” Says Rule. “This rig is easy to make, it consists of a basic Carolina rig with a 2-4 foot leader. The big difference is that I use a boot lace filled with eight 00 buckshot instead of the conventional egg sinker. This elongated weight results in fewer hang-ups, which are common to drift fishing. Another plus of the Santee Rig is the small float placed about 6 inches up from the hook that keeps the bait floating up a foot or more from bottom, making it much easier for a catfish grab as the bait drifts by.”
