Couzer Report post Posted July 12, 2014 Well I decided to run over to the lower salt river today in a few hours. Does anyone recommend any tips or baits to use? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Antmo23 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 Take a can of tuna or cat food. Poke a few holes in it, wade out and place it in some current at the head of a hole. Cast your bait in the chum slick. Just remember to grab the can before you leave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJMauro12 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 Not trying to cause a problem but I thought chumming was illegal in AZ. I may just be thinking about trout and they would probably have a really tough time proving it especially since if they cut the fish open there wouldn't be any evidence since the cat food would just give a scent and nothing for him to eat they could find in his stomach. I may be completely off in my thinking because I've actually never read the rule. It's just something I've always heard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norteno Report post Posted July 13, 2014 Where exactly would one fish for Cats on the Lower Salt? I've caught trout and bass in the winter months at PhonD and Blue Point. Maybe lower towards the Dam? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
