“We had a blast and I am so happy that Nick not only caught a trout on his fly rod but that he caught the biggest trout.  He said he learned so much from you yesterday as I also did.  A great experience. Thanks again and we will be repeat customers, maybe even a float…

Channel catfish provide consistent action around Beulaville, North Carolina, and are a great target for anglers of all skill levels. The creeks and rivers in this area, like the Northeast Cape Fear River, hold healthy populations of channel cats. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, are the most productive. Look for deeper holes, submerged logs, and areas with current breaks. Night fishing can be especially rewarding. Chicken livers, nightcrawlers, and commercial catfish baits are all effective. There are several public access points along the Northeast Cape Fear River, but be prepared for muddy conditions, especially after rain. The channel cats in this area tend to be good eaters, so don't hesitate to keep a few for the table, following all size and creel limits.
