Ohio River cats from the bank

[Jackster]

The hybrids we were catching were pretty small 4 inches to about 10 inches. May have been some white bass mixed in there as well. Sauger were cigars all the way up to about 8 inches in length. We were fishing the shelf right out in front of the center.

I went down there two nights ago and wore em out! Small Sauger on 3/8 oz. white jig/red curly tail grub, bouncing it across the rocks. I caught larger Whites and Hybrids on White jighead/white grub and one of those rubber shad that wiggle! I never really tried for cats over there except for in the slack water under the train bridge. I have only caught a few channel cats there. Oh yea, there is a DNR officer on site. Dave
