Thanks for the reply. I went out Friday after work and got to the lake about 30-45 minutes after dark. From your description I was using a Carolina rig. I started out with a worm on a gang hook and after about 20 minutes I switched to beef liver. We are not allowed to use live fish for bait in Washington state. The biggest problem I had was underestimating how cold it was at the lake. I sat with my lawn chair andmy gas lantern until I could not stand it anymore. I did not have to worry about cleaning/filleting any cats...none caught. I will not give up.
