While touring in support of ''El Cielo'', Dredg began work on their third album, ''[[Catch Without Arms]]'', spending 8 months writing material before taking another 10 months to record and mix the album.<ref name="AP interview" /> Like their previous albums, ''Catch Without Arms'' was a concept album; however, differing from the concrete stories and events surrounding their earlier releases, ''Catch Without Arms'' was about opposites, mainly focused on positives and negatives.<ref name="MTVa" /> Produced by [[Terry Date]], ''Catch Without Arms'' was Dredg's most successful album, debuting at 123 on the ''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'' album charts, selling over 9,000 copies,<ref name="MTVb">{{Cite web |title=Coldplay Continue Chart Invasion, Holding #1 For Third Week |url=https://www.mtv.com/news/1iwfbu/coldplay-continue-chart-invasion-holding-1-for-third-week |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220815124312/https://www.mtv.com/news/1iwfbu/coldplay-continue-chart-invasion-holding-1-for-third-week |url-status=dead |archive-date=August 15, 2022 |access-date=2022-08-15 |website=MTV |language=en}}</ref> and eventually reaching the top of the Heatseekers chart.<ref name="MTVb" /><ref name="Billboard-B">{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/charts/heatseekers-albums/2005-09-10|title=Heatseekers Albums Chart|magazine=Billboard}}</ref> The only single on the album, "[[Bug Eyes (Dredg song)|Bug Eyes]]", was made into a music video directed by [[Philip Andelman]].<ref name="MTVa" />

With the release of ''Catch Without Arms'', Dredg began a treasure hunt based around the Bay Area. The three winners each received a painting from ''Catch Without Arms'', as well as the opportunity to name a song for the next album, "Vague Clues and Long Days".<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.traversingboard.com/forum/movements/movement-i-dredg-talk/775-#post19314|title=Detail of the Treasure Hunt|date=February 6, 2006 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.traversingboard.com/forum/movements/movement-i-dredg-talk/775-/page2#post36271|title=Treasure Hunt song title|date=July 20, 2006 }}</ref>

Dredg headlined several tours in support of ''Catch Without Arms'', playing with bands such as [[Circa Survive]], [[Day One Symphony]], [[Delta Activity]], [[Vedera]], [[Ours (band)|Ours]] and [[Ambulette]]. They played the [[Taste of Chaos]] tour in 2006 with [[Deftones]], [[Atreyu (band)|Atreyu]], [[Thrice]] and [[Story of the Year]],<ref name="Billboard-C">{{cite magazine| url = http://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/thrice-deftones-lead-2006-taste-of-chaos-bill-60487/| title = Thrice, Deftones Lead 2006 Taste Of Chaos Bill| author = Cohen, Jonathan| magazine = Billboard| date = December 1, 2005| access-date = April 26, 2008}}</ref> as well as shows with [[Coheed and Cambria]], [[The Blood Brothers (band)|the Blood Brothers]] and [[MewithoutYou]].<ref name="Tour Archive" /> Engles and Campanella also took some time to record the soundtrack for the 2005 [[independent film]], ''[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0423514 Waterborne]''.<ref name="MTVa" />

On May 11, 2006, Dredg recorded their concert in [[San Francisco]] for a live CD entitled ''[[Live at the Fillmore (Dredg album)|Live at the Fillmore]]''. Released on November 7, 2006, ''Live at the Fillmore'' contained songs from all three studio albums, as well as a new song titled "The Warbler". A remix of "Sang Real" by [[Dan the Automator]] was released with purchase of the album on [[iTunes]].

On September 14 and 15, 2006, Dredg played two special shows at [[the Catalyst]] in [[Santa Cruz, California]], playing ''Leitmotif'' and ''El Cielo'' in their entirety on separate nights. During these shows the band played songs from ''Catch Without Arms'' before diving into the full album of the night.<ref name="AP">{{cite news| url = http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=165968| archive-url = https://archive.today/20130221050439/http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=165968| url-status = dead| archive-date = February 21, 2013| title = Dredg Special Santa Cruz Show Details| author = Schmitz, Katie| work = AbsolutePunk.net| date = August 25, 2006| access-date = April 22, 2008}}</ref> Of note, each night they played a very early version of "It's Not Worth It" (a song that did not make it into the final album) at about the midpoint of each album. On the second night, as a segue into ''El Cielo'', they performed an early instrumental version of "Wonderous Miracle" (another song that did not make it into the final album).
