Ohio river catfish Sat night

Put in at Brandenburg and ran upriver. Drifted deep flats off the main channel with down rods baited with cut skippies. All fish caught between 18'-24' deep with baits approx 3' off bottom.

8 total fish, largest was 9# blue, smallest was 6# flathead so size was about as consistent as you can get. All fish were blues except for the one flathead. Most bites came between 10pm-2am, with 2 fish around 4am. Had two hits that doubled rods under the boat and broke off. Also had several gars bite the line through. Not a bad night, just no size. First time I had drift-fished for several years. Weather was perfect.
