Channel Catfish
Channel Catfish aren't a primary target species for most anglers around Sequim, as they're not commonly found in the freshwater systems of the Olympic Peninsula. The cool, clear waters of the region are more suited to trout and salmon. If you're specifically looking to catch Channel Catfish, you'd need to travel further east within Washington State to find suitable habitats. However, if you are interested in fishing the local freshwater, consider focusing on species that are more prevalent, such as trout or bass. Local tackle shops can provide information on where these species can be found and what techniques are most effective. If you are set on targeting catfish in Washington, research lakes and rivers in the eastern part of the state known to hold populations. Always check the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations before fishing any water body.
