Testing New Catfish Rods: Dragging Baits at Night for Shallow Water Catfish

  • Join me as I break in my new catfish rods on a productive evening of dragging baits in one of my favorite coves. The action starts with the sun setting and continues well into the night as the Catfish move into the shallow, 2-3 foot waters to feed. These new rods proved their worth, handling the challenge of dragging baits like pros. I also experimented with black lights to illuminate my rods, but they didn’t quite cut it. As the night went on, I switched to my regular filming light for the last few catches. It’s clear I need better black lights, but the fishing was still a blast! Watch the video and let me know what you think of these new rods!

    You can definitely drag with a med heavy rod but it kind of depends on the brand of rod. Not all med heavy rods fish the same.

      Its a stern planar board made by Church Tackle. Here is a discount link to their website. I don't make anything from it. I saw one at a local shop and just had to buy it: churchtackle.com/discount/TNRVG10
