Channel Catfish
Newellton, Louisiana, is a fantastic spot for targeting channel catfish, offering consistent action throughout much of the year. These whiskered fish are abundant in the local rivers and lakes, providing a reliable fishing opportunity for anglers of all skill levels. While you can catch them year-round, the warmer months of late spring, summer, and early fall are generally the most productive. Channel cats are opportunistic feeders, so a variety of baits can be effective, including stink baits, cut bait, worms, and even prepared dough baits. A local tip: try fishing near submerged timber, creek mouths, or areas with current. These catfish are known for their good eating quality, and many anglers enjoy a catfish fry after a successful day on the water. Be sure to check the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries regulations for size and creel limits.
