I use the pool noodle jugs with a cut off piece of rebar to tip up the jugs when the get a fish on. I like circle hooks because my hook up ratio is much better. Years ago we would run them at dusk and check them every 2 hours. We would sit in the truck or pup tent and drink bear all night. By morning we would have plenty of catfish in the cooler. It's the most relaxing way to fish for sure..

@GAFisherman Жыл бұрын

Brings back great memories. When I was a kid I loved running jugs with dad. We had probably 25 of the old quart size Clorox bottles with maybe 7 to 10 ft of line and a heavy split shot. We'd use shad or night crawlers, depending on which was easier to get. We'd drift them in medium current on a river flat and load the cooler with eating size catfish. We'd host a fish fry about once a year and cook them and any crappie we caught earlier in the spring. Loads of fun.

Where did you get those round jugs?

Man I’ve had those things for 15 years. I did however see that they still sell them out of Oklahoma. Jugs by Bert. Pretty pricey these days. Thank you for the comment 👍

@@CATCHAHAWG Yes, I thought about going ahead and buying them, but that would be a big expense if they were stole.

I love jug line fishing. I use 2 ft. pieces of 2 in. PVC capped off. They work great. I have 28 of them. Yes, they will work you to death. Lol.

Are you letting them drift or are they stationary?

@@CATCHAHAWG I put a weight on them and let them stay stationary. Sorry for the late response. I have been camping all week on Lake Bob Sandlin catching them crappie.

@@CATCHAHAWG I have never ran jugs on LBS. When I run jugs, it is on Cooper Lake. I do real well there. Yea, the crappie are good on these lakes. We did really well Monday and Tuesday. We had to work harder yesterday, but still did okay. I hung the biggest crappie that I would have ever caught yesterday, but he came off as we had the net right at him. It seems like that is the way it is sometimes. Lol. It will just have to go as one of those fishing stories. Lol.
