Below you will find essential tips and tackle for catfishing.

E-chips are a very small, sealed tube with
a ball bearing and a ceramic microchip inside. The movement of the ball
bearing causes the microchip to create a small electric current. Fish
have been proven to be very sensitive to such currents and use that sense
to hunt prey. All living creatures generate such currents when sending
instructions from the brain to the various muscles of the body; this
includes fish as well.
Fishing Methods for E-chips: simply attach an E-chip to your line, hook, or lure and fish it the way you normally would.
