If you want to go with a graphite rod for smaller channel catfish instead of e-glass youll sacrifice some strength and durability but its an option and the Berkley Lightning Rods are an affordable option

Some examples of winter bass fishing lures or baits to use are soft plastic worms, hair jigs, curly tail grubs, suspending jerkbaits, Ned rigs, and shakyhead jigs

As for lures, we have mentioned some of these before, but never caught that many on them

Built with Berkley's honeycomb body and MaxScent formula the Flux Gill produces increased scent dispersion, subtle vibration, and fluid movement in the water

To make the lure work really well, you need to work the rod tip down and then reel in the slack that will make the side-to-side motion happen
