For channel catfish enthusiasts, Strathmoor Village and its surrounding areas in Kentucky offer consistent action. The Beargrass Creek system, along with smaller lakes and ponds, holds good populations of channel cats. The warmer months, from late spring through summer, are ideal. Focus on areas with structure like downed trees, riprap, or bridge pilings. Night fishing is particularly productive, with catfish actively feeding under the cover of darkness. Simple bottom fishing rigs baited with nightcrawlers, chicken liver, or commercial catfish baits are effective. A local's secret is to try fishing near culverts or drainage pipes after a rain, as the increased flow often attracts catfish. The channel catfish in this region are known for their good size and willingness to bite, making for exciting fishing experiences. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits.
