Total count was 100 crappie and 12 blue cats

Nice. The water they're in must be dark, as in on the muddy side, right?

What did you use for bait

What did you use for bait

Water I'd call heavy stained but not muddy. Crankbaits.

You caught catfish on a crankbait?

Oh and I can't see the bottom fin but at least one has a forked tail like a channel cat. Not always a tell tale identifier and just asking out if curiosity if y'all call them all blues over there.

I don't think I've ever caught any kind of catfish on artificial bait.

Yea the blues on crankbaits too. They just chasing the shad around too. Blues eat mostly live fish pretty common to get them on artificials. We did catch several really small channels too but all the cats we kept were blues. They call the white river or white humpback cats there bc of their lighter color there and that they were brought in to a hatchery that used to be there in the 60s from the white river.
