My advice to you from where ever you end of fishing from the bank for catfish is Somehow get some skipjack (with a circle hook) cut up into small chunks and use for bait. SkipJack is the most oily fish around and catfish love it. I think you can buy some at certain baitshops. Try Walkers bait in Hendersonville. You can catch skipjack below Old Hickory dam and is a good place for bank fisherman. You can catch them on small jigs or buy a sabiki rig it has several small hooks on it. Youll need to put a 3/4 oz or so weight on the bottom of the rig and work it with hard ripping/jerking motion. Use heavy line from the bank because if you get hung you may break off. Good luck!!
