Channel Catfish
Channel catfish are a popular target in White Hall, Alabama, and the Alabama River offers excellent opportunities. These whiskered predators thrive in the river's deep channels, backwater sloughs, and around submerged structure. Summer and fall are arguably the best times to target channel catfish, as they are actively feeding to prepare for the winter months. Night fishing can be particularly productive. Baits like cut bait, chicken livers, and stinkbaits are local favorites. Several boat ramps along the Alabama River provide access for anglers with boats. For bank fishing, look for areas with deep water close to shore or near bridge pilings. A practical tip: Be prepared for strong currents in the Alabama River. Use heavy weights to keep your bait on the bottom. The channel catfish in this area can reach impressive sizes, so use sturdy tackle.
