If you make the decision you will be using cutbait to target channel catfish or blue catfish a good choice for fishing rig would be what is called a fixed sinker rig.

Fixed sinker rigs are easy to make and use. First you will need to choose a sinker type for your fixed sinker rig. A good multipurpose sinker would be a large bass or bell sinker.
