Channel Catfish
For those seeking whiskered giants, Riffe Lake near Mossyrock, Washington, holds a healthy population of Channel Catfish. While not as widely targeted as other species, the catfish here can reach impressive sizes. The warmer months, particularly late spring through summer, are prime time for targeting these bottom-dwellers. Focus your efforts in the evenings and at night, as catfish are most active under the cover of darkness. Baited stinkbaits, cut bait, or nightcrawlers fished on the bottom near submerged structure or creek channels are all effective. A popular spot is near the old townsite that was flooded when the lake was created, offering plenty of submerged structure. Be prepared for some heavy lifting, as these catfish can put up a strong fight! Consider using a fish finder to locate submerged structure. The boat launch at Mossyrock Park is a good option for accessing the lake.
