7ft+ med/heavy spinning rod for distance casting. Heavy duty reel with 15lb mono for a good pull. Use circle hooks with minnows, worms, chicken livers, shrimp, most other forms of meat. Take a chair, a 6 pack, and some friends down to your local river and cast to the channel... It's bullet proof.
As far as grabbing them, I like to grab em in the lip like a bass. It gives them a chance to get me back for hooking them.

Do what I do...fish for walleyes using shiners/jigs and crawlers on a harness. I catch a ton of channels.

creek chubs, suckers, and blue gills all work well as cut bait for channels. some people will step on cut bait to kinda mash it to disperse the scent better. or you can just put some slits in a bait to give it more surface area. never heard anything good about dip baits. not worth the foul stench in my opinion.
