Channel Catfish
Channel catfish in the Tower City, North Dakota, area offer a rewarding fishing experience, particularly in the Sheyenne River. This winding river provides ideal habitat for catfish, with plenty of deep holes, log jams, and undercut banks where they like to lurk. Summer is the prime time for targeting catfish, especially during the evening and nighttime hours when they become more active. A local tip is to use cut bait or stink bait fished on the bottom with a slip sinker rig. Channel cats in this area can range in size from a few pounds to well over ten, so be prepared for a good fight. Access to the river can be limited in some areas, so look for public access points near bridges or designated fishing areas. Also, be mindful of the river's current, which can be strong at times. Using heavier weights will help keep your bait in place. The catfish population here is relatively healthy, offering a good chance at landing a decent-sized fish.
