Quick take
A 23-inch pre-tied catfish rig with EVA slip float, circle hooks and double rattles for river and bank fishing.
A pack of six pre-tied Santee-style catfish float rigs, each with a circle hook, an adjustable EVA slip float, a stopper and rattles already assembled. The slip float lets you set bait depth and keep it off the bottom in rivers, lakes and ponds, and glow beads help you keep an eye on the rig after dark. It suits bank anglers after catfish with cut bait who would rather skip the knot tying.
Best for
- Bank and river catfish fishing
- Cut bait presentations under a float
- Night fishing with glow-activated beads
Skip if
- You want to fish a tight bottom rig without a float
- You need a stronger line for trophy flathead catfish
Strengths
- Circle hooks hook and hold catfish efficiently
- EVA float lets you fish at precise depth
- Double rattles create vibration to attract cats in murky water
Trade-offs
- Pre-tied rigs wear out and need replacement
- Float-and-rattle approach may spook some catfish in clear water
