Channel Catfish
Chasing channel catfish near Cimarron, Kansas, is best done in the area's rivers and larger creeks. The Arkansas River, while sometimes challenging due to fluctuating water levels, holds good numbers of catfish. Summer nights are prime time, as the catfish become more active under the cover of darkness. Stink baits, cut bait, and nightcrawlers are all effective choices. A practical tip is to focus on areas with deep holes, logjams, and undercut banks, as these provide ideal hiding places for catfish. Be prepared for some muddy conditions, especially after rainfall. Remember that channel catfish are opportunistic feeders, so experimenting with different baits can help you dial in what they're biting on. Check local regulations regarding bait restrictions and size limits before you head out.
