Channel Catfish
If you're looking for some whiskered action, Glencoe, Alabama, offers some excellent channel catfish opportunities. The Coosa River, which flows nearby, is a prime spot. Catfish thrive in its depths and along its banks. Targeting areas near Weiss Lake, a large reservoir on the Coosa, can also prove fruitful, especially where feeder creeks enter the lake. The best time to target these fish is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when they are most active. Night fishing can be particularly productive. For bank access, try areas around the public parks along the Coosa. A local tip: catfish in this area respond well to stink baits and cut bait, especially shad if you can get it. Be aware of fluctuating water levels on the Coosa due to power generation from the dam, and adjust your fishing spots accordingly. The channel catfish here are known to grow to respectable sizes, so be prepared for a good fight!
