Fishing in a lake? Channel or Bull Cats it is.
Find structure with depth. Chicken livers are a great bait. Channel and bullcats love those things. Use about a 5/0 hook. The cats probably won't be nothing massive, so that's all you'll need. You can use a standard 2 hook drop rig for these cats. They aren't line shy.
A little trick with the chicken livers, freeze them first. They'll be alot less messy to put on the hook, plus they'll stay on better.
What lake are you fishing? There might be larger species there. If so, that would change your tactics a bit.
