The best way I have found to catch big cats in a lake is with 6 inch creek chubs( Big Minnows ) Place a split shot on your line, about 14 inches above the creek chub, and leave your reel on free spool, after reeling up your slack after the cast. When a cat picks it up, your line will start running off of the reel. Click the bell, and when your line gets tight set the hook.
I catch many nice flat heads that way every year.
