Went out to SARL Sunday 04/25 and was hit with a pile of skunk. Last year was my first summer really fishing for cats on a regular basis. I bought all the necessary gear I thought was needed and thought I did decent all summer averaging 2-3 per trips but never hit the limit. This year I had higher expectations and skunking on my first trip immideatly shots those expectations down. I will list the different setups below but if anyone has any further tips, tricks or prayers that will help me have a better summer slaying catfish please chime in. BTW I mostly shore fish.
