Channel Catfish
If you're after Channel Catfish around Flomaton, Alabama, the Conecuh River is your best bet. This river holds a healthy population of Channel Cats, offering anglers consistent action throughout the year. Spring and early summer are particularly productive, as the catfish move into shallower waters to spawn. However, they can be caught year-round by adjusting your tactics. Stink baits, cut bait, and nightcrawlers are all effective baits. Focus on areas with submerged structure, such as fallen trees or rock piles. Several public access points along the Conecuh River provide good bank fishing opportunities. If you're using a boat, be cautious of shallow areas and submerged obstacles. A local tip: Channel Catfish in this area often congregate near creek mouths and confluences. Try fishing these areas, especially after a rain, as the influx of nutrients attracts catfish. The Channel Catfish in the Conecuh are known for their good size and fighting ability, making for an enjoyable fishing experience.
