Default Darn catfish

Went to Drakes Creek looking for stripers and hybrids Tuesday afternoon.
Wanted to jig a blade bait like a silver buddy or a jigging rap and see if I could catch white bass, yellow bass, crappie etc.
I'd find a group of fish near the bottom and watch my bait on the Livescope. In 10 minutes I caught two blue cats, one was 1 pound, the other about 2 lbs. I believe if I went back there with catfish bait I could have caught fish all afternoon. But, catfish wasn't on the menu for the day.
Lot of bait in Drakes but I couldn't find whites, stripers, or hybrids.
Trolled my Arigs for a couple hours with NO hits at all, finally called it quits around 4.
I found catfish everywhere in Drakes so if anyone likes catfish, I'd imagine some cut bait would catch a boatfull.
