    eh, the barge bite. Used to fish the wing wall at the Guttenburg, Ia. lock and dam. If water wasn't too high you can walk out on it. Sit there for hours fishing straight down with big live baits, catch a couple 30/40 pounders, then the barges come through moving that massive wall side to side when entering the lock. When they come in, pull the lines until the boats gone so ya don't get scrambled on snags, then refresh. Once the power was in the lock, the fish hit....BIG fish. Had hooked a couple that 80lb offshore gear couldn't move more than a few feet. Hung up? Maybe.... Perhaps they were residents under the broken lock wall and had the angle to stay where they were.

    How do you control your speed? Just by using a trolling motor or drift with current of river?
    Do you suspend or are you on the bottom? Do you try to find an area in lake that is all the same depth or do you allow your bait to drag bottom for those high areas?

    I've been wanting to try control drifting The ledges like this on the Missouri River near Kansas City where I live. It's a great River and there are some massive catfish in here. My two best blues this year was 64 lb and 59 lb. The problem is the water is moving so fast in this area it's very difficult to get set up on the spots you want to fish sometimes. I'm planning on picking up an 80 lb terrova to replace my 55 lb power drive and I hope that does the trick. We will see
    Ohh and I sure do love my six red devil monster rod Holders as well as my big catfish net from you guys. You have great stuff and thanks for the great quality.
