Hey Clay...I cant even catch baby BH in my cloverleaf traps consistently.
Most times, for catfish traps to work well requires at least a little current, whether it be a hoop net or slat trap. Catfish tend to feed more by smell than sight. Current flowing thru the trap with bait placed in the back of it, and the entrance pointed down stream draws them in.
Not saying an oversized cloverleaf wont work, just dont know how consistent it will be.
