Channel Catfish
Golden Meadow's network of canals and bayous offers excellent channel catfish opportunities. These waterways, influenced by the Gulf, provide a rich environment for catfish to thrive. The best time to target channel catfish is during the warmer months, from late spring through fall, especially after a rain when the water is slightly turbid. Focus your efforts on deeper holes, bends in the canals, and areas with submerged structure. Cut bait, nightcrawlers, and stinkbaits are all effective choices. Several boat launches along Highway 308 provide easy access to the canals. A helpful tip: Catfish in this area are often opportunistic feeders, so experimenting with different baits can improve your success. The catfish population is healthy, with good numbers of smaller fish and the occasional larger specimen.
