Channel Catfish
Channel catfish are a readily available and popular target for anglers around Twin Groves, Arkansas. You'll find them in most of the area's lakes, ponds, and rivers. Lake Bennett is a reliable option, but don't overlook smaller farm ponds. These fish are opportunistic feeders, so a variety of baits can work, from traditional stinkbaits and chicken liver to nightcrawlers and cut bait. Fishing near the bottom is generally the most effective strategy. Spring and summer are prime times, particularly after rain, when catfish become more active. Look for them around submerged structure, creek channels, and areas with current. A simple slip-sinker rig is a good starting point. A local tactic is to add a small piece of sponge soaked in your chosen attractant to the hook to help disperse the scent. Remember to handle catfish with care, as they have sharp spines.
