Channel Catfish
St. Gabriel, Louisiana, sits in the heart of some excellent channel catfish territory. The Mississippi River and its connected waterways provide ample habitat for these whiskered predators. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, are ideal for targeting them. Catfish are opportunistic feeders, so a variety of baits will work. Popular choices include stinkbaits, cut bait, and nightcrawlers. Look for them in areas with structure like submerged logs, riprap, and deep holes. Fishing near the bottom is key. A simple Carolina rig is often effective. The Blind River is also a great spot to target catfish. A local tip is to fish at night, as catfish are most active under the cover of darkness. Public access points are available along the Mississippi River levee. The channel catfish in this area can grow to impressive sizes, offering a rewarding fishing experience.
