Any success stories on providing structure for catfish to make sweet catfish love? Added some catfish last year but no structure (baby steps). Thanks for the suggestions.....

I've had pretty good success with large tractor tires. Got'em free from the local tire shop.

I have used 7 gallon buckets, ceramic tiles from 4" up to 12" (piled up with ends partially blocked), plastic tiles from 4" to 8", and an upside-down watering trough with a hole in one end. Something out of that collection worked at least two years.

I used cattle mineral buckets with the open ends tyed together to make a barrel,then cut a 6" diameter hole in one end.I guess it works cause mine spawned.

Just from looking at some other posts would you say 4' depth is about right? Any other successes at other depths?

I had possible CC spawning habitat at a variety of depths from 3' down to maybe 8'. But the stuff I added specifically to try and get the CC to spawn was at 3'-4'.
