Try using live bait, shad will work but doesn't stay alive very long, gills are even better .... I caught several 10+ lb channels last year fishing for Flatheads, all but one on either a live gill or shad ..

When the channels get over the 10 lb range they start feeding on live prey like a flathead .... also if you are catching smaller cats (1 lb and under) move because when the 10+er's move in the smaller cats move out (or become supper)
