Channel Catfish
Channel catfish in the Aumsville, Oregon area are most commonly found in the Willamette River and its larger tributaries. These rivers offer the deep holes and slow-moving water that catfish prefer. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, especially after a period of rain when the water is slightly murky. Look for areas with submerged structure, such as fallen trees and rock piles. Night fishing can be particularly productive. Public access points along the Willamette River provide opportunities for both boat and bank fishing. Use stinkbaits, nightcrawlers, or cut bait fished on the bottom with a Carolina rig. Catfish in this region can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a good fight!
