If you're looking for whiskered giants near Greenwood Village, Colorado, you'll want to set your sights on the channel catfish in the South Platte River and some of the local reservoirs. While not known as a catfish mecca, the South Platte offers surprisingly good opportunities, especially in the warmer months. Look for deeper holes, particularly near submerged structure like fallen trees or bridge pilings. Summer evenings and nights are prime time. A practical tip: access to the South Platte can be tricky in some areas. Check for public access points along the river and be mindful of private property. Many anglers find success using cut bait or nightcrawlers fished on the bottom with a simple Carolina rig. The catfish here aren't particularly pressured, so basic techniques can be very effective. Remember that Colorado Parks and Wildlife regulates fishing, so check for any specific regulations regarding catfish size or possession limits.
