My father-in-law used to have a camp at the Gibbstown bridge when it was a pontoon bridge and kept trot lines and limb lines set in the Intracoastal all the time. He tore up the catfish, especially in the spring, using crawfish and other live bait he caught in the ditches on the way to his camp. I sure do miss running those lines. In the spring he could catch as much as 100 lbs of dressed catfish on one run of about 100-150 hooks.
