Channel Catfish
Channel catfish aren't the first species that comes to mind when you think of Roseburg, but the Umpqua River system does hold a population of these whiskered fish. The best fishing is typically in the warmer months, from late spring through summer and into early fall. Focus on deeper pools and slow-moving sections of the river, especially near structure like submerged logs or undercut banks. Night fishing can be particularly productive. Stinkbaits, cut bait, and nightcrawlers are all effective baits. A helpful tip: target areas near the confluence of smaller tributaries with the main Umpqua, as these areas often concentrate baitfish and, in turn, catfish. Also, be prepared for some heavy lifting, as some of these catfish can reach impressive sizes. Public access is available, but be mindful of private property boundaries.
