] For catfish, use a carolina rig with a light livebait hook. Impale the minnow through the back just behind the dorsal fin and above the lateral line.
For bass or crappie, use a light livebait hook or a gold aberdeen hook under a small pencil float. Adjust the weight (split shot) needed to keep the pencil float vertical and submerged no more than 1/2 it's length. Start at 2 feet deep and work around submerged stumps, brushpiles, or other structure. Increase depth as needed.
