Kids and Catfish

Day 2: Jugging for Catfish

Editor’s Note: One of the best ways to make sure that kids catch fish is to hire a guide who knows where the fish are, how to catch them and how to make sure that the children’s parents or grandparents have a good time together and a successful fishing trip.

Whether they’re Yo-Yo fishing or jug fishing for cats, catching crappie or fishing for bluegill, there’s nothing Jack would rather do than spend time with his dad on the water catching fish. Once you take your children or grandchildren fishing, you’ll find that it will probably have the same effect. If you don’t have Yo-Yos, consider the possibility of fishing with jugs.

Jug fishing is busy fishing.  You must make sure you have bait on your lines at all times, catch-up to the catfish that are running-off with your jugs, keep the wind and the current from blowing your jugs all over the river or the lake, take fish off the hooks and rebait again.
