Any tips or tricks for catching bullhead and channell catfish? whats the best size set up? I was thinking I would use a 6 foot med action for bullhead catfish and A 8'6 med~heavy for channell cats.

All I can say is SHRIMP!!!
Buy a bag of frozen shrimp. By the time you get to the lake they will be thawed.
Catfish absolutely destroy shrimp and it's way cleaner to handle than liver.

chicken livers that sat in the sun for a bit used to work good. just fish the muddy/sandy bottom with a little bit of water flow.
-
Nightcrawlers with some anise scent.

a very comfortable chair, lot's of firewood and your favorite brewskie x20
Oh, and someone to keep the fire hot and drive your drunk azz home :chuckle:

For bullheads in the spring I recommend salad shrimp, a sunny shoreline, folding lawn chair and just a little bit more beer with than you think you'll need.
* didnt mean to basically double up KF's post, but there's obviously a pattern here!
