I'm from Kansas and lately the weather here had been getting cold, at what
temp should I stop fishing for cats? As you can tell I'm not very
experienced at fishing for cats (mostly channels where I fish), fairly new
at it. Also what bait usually works best for you guys? I've had pretty
good success with chicken livers. Any answers would be apreacheated.
Thanks.

Well, I'm from SC, and we fish for cats all year long here (of course it
doesn't get very cold either). Chicken livers or gizzards will work. Depends
on how you're fishing. Bush hooks I would usually use shrimp. They really go
after them. A fish trap, use bacon. The grease draws em in good. Just keep
trying different ones till you see what works for you. I catch them with worms
on a rod and reel.

Thanks for the info, I've been doing pretty good with chicken livers and
worms, haven't tried fish traps yet but I'm looking for one.
