Rathbun, IA catfishing?

[urcowboy]

I am planning a weekend trip to Rathbun lake over the laborday weekend. Does anyone know where the best spots for catfish are? What about the best baits?

For catfish I use worms, cut or whole shad, or crawfish for blue cat. Black perch (live hooked through the eyes)(crappie are not legal) for flathead. Chicken or rabbit liver for channel cat. My Grandmother used a kernel of corn and a cain pole.
