kingkeeper21 2 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 for cats depends what they allow on the water try a dead bait but dont use trebles use something like a size 2 or 1/0 alot of cats have been caught on large halibut pellets but remember their mouths are huge so dont be frightened to use big baits cats have poor eyesight so use really high oil baits that add to the attraction and they can be quite nocturnal. as for rigs use strong abraision resistant braid the stronger the better but dont overdue the main line. atb let us no how you get on.
