Sorry if I post too many comments but…the lake I fish in is made up of a lot of severe depth changes in the depths the fish seem to be. There are places where the water is 30’ deep 15’ from the bank. A lot of places, the depth will be 5’ different from the bow of my 19’ boat to the stern. Most of the flats are 30’+ and have never produced a bite. Is there some way planer boards can be used in varying depths? I try to maintain a general depth but it can change so fast that a gust of wind will push me into a significantly different depth till I can recover from it.

I’ve got high hopes for your podcast. I drift and drag for catfish nearly every weekday and STILL can’t really pinpoint them. Two weeks ago, I caught an 8lb blue in 4.1’ of water. The next day, a 7lb blue in 8.6’ of water. Two days later, I caught an 8, a 7, two 5s, two 4s, and a few more between 2 and 3.5lbs. I caught these in 25’ of water. WTH? I fish a small (9,000 acre) Texas lake and still can’t find anything over 10lbs. I exclusively use big chunks of fresh cut shad. A 6” shad will make 2 good baits. The lake is so full of little yellow bass and small catfish that you have to use something they can’t get off

For the tide and current there I'd use 6oz egg sinkers 8/0 circle hooks( I was after the big boys) and generally fish a depth at least 10 to 25ft deep. Live bream if I had enough for bait. Or I'd keep them alive till I got on the water then cut up what I needed. Seemed to have better catch rate on Flathead catfish. Which was my target species. Maybe if you wanna try it that may help!
