Channel Catfish
Calvin, Louisiana, is a great place to target channel catfish in its freshwater systems. The numerous lakes and rivers provide diverse habitats for catfish of all sizes. Targeting channel cats is best from late spring through summer, as the water warms and their feeding activity increases. Local anglers often have success using stink baits or cut bait in the deeper holes of the Little River. If you're looking for a good access point, consider the public boat launch near the Highway 126 bridge. From there, you can explore the river and surrounding areas. A practical tip: pay attention to water levels. After a good rain, the catfish tend to move into shallower areas along the banks, making for some exciting fishing. The channel catfish here are known for their willingness to bite, making it a fun and rewarding experience for anglers of all skill levels.
