Our
bait soap bar will make anywhere
from 75 -200 or even more pieces of bait depending on how big a chunk
you
have to use(it depends on the size of the hook). Bait in the bar form
stays
fresh longer than bait stored in chunk form, that's why we let you cut
it
yourself!

Our
catfish bait soap has a consistency
that won't cause it to flake apart or crumble when you put a hook in it
at your favorite catfish fishing hole. Our catfish bait stays on the
hook
very well, making it an ideal jugline and trotline bait.

Setting a Trotline - Fishing
With Trotlines
Setting a Trotline from Shallow
Water To Deep Water
Fishing with trotlines as previously
mentioned is an easy and
effective way of fishing for catfish. Setting a trotline from shallow
water
to deep water is one of the common ways to set a trotline. Setting a
trotline
from shallow water to deep water is most often done in creek channels,
rivers
or in lakes with an area near a steep dropoff. To set your trotline in
an
area like this, you simply to your trotline to the shallow side first,
tieing
off to a tree or stump or such on the shallow water side.Begin feeding
your
trotline out towards the area your trotline will end and deploy a
weight
about 1/2 way out, you will want to use at least several pounds of
weight
in this area of your trotline. Continue setting your trotline past the
weight
and when you get to the end you will want to add another weight. I
suggest
this weight be very heavy, because this is what will hold the end of
your
trotline in place.When you are at the end of your trotline, tie some
twine
to your end weight and then knot the twine to the end of the trotline
at
the depth you want your trotline to set from the bottom of the lake.
When
you get the weight line and trotline end tied up, continue to feed
twine
out until you have a length of twine that is the same as the water
depth,
and then tie on your float. You should make sure your trotline is
pulled
tight. Go back to the beginning of the trotline and cut your catfish
bait
soap into chunks and begin baiting your trotline, you will need to bait
your trotline and keep it pulled tight at the same time, when you have
finished
baiting your line with the catfish bait soap then you should keep
pulling
tension on the trotline away from where you have tied on the shallow
side
using the line that your float is attached to. Once the trotline is
good
and right you should slowly let the weight down into place.
This is one of the more difficult methods of
fishing with trotlines.
I do not reccomend this method of fishing with trotlines if you are not
experienced. Make sure you check your local laws in regards to fishing
with
trotlines. Most states have laws pertaining to fishing with trotlines.
