Channel Catfish
While not a premier catfish destination, the lakes and rivers near Redmond do hold channel catfish that are worth targeting. Lake Sammamish and the Sammamish River are your best bets. Look for catfish in deeper holes, near submerged structure, and along muddy banks. Summer evenings are the ideal time to fish for them, as they become more active after dark. A local tip: Try fishing near the mouth of tributaries flowing into Lake Sammamish, as catfish often congregate in these areas to feed. Using live nightcrawlers or cut bait is effective. Also, be aware that the Sammamish River can experience fluctuating water levels depending on rainfall and dam operations, so check conditions before you go.
