Channel Catfish
Channel catfish fishing near Kirby, Wyoming, is best pursued in the Bighorn River. While not a traditional catfish hotspot, the Bighorn does hold a population of channel cats that can provide some exciting fishing, especially during the warmer months. The best time to target them is during the summer, particularly after dark. Focus your efforts on deeper holes and areas with submerged structure. A local tip is to use cut bait or nightcrawlers, as these are effective for attracting catfish in the Bighorn River. Be prepared for a variety of sizes, as the catfish population can range from small to surprisingly large. Access to the river is available at several public access points along Highway 20. The catfish in this area are opportunistic feeders, so experiment with different baits and presentations to find what works best. Check the Wyoming Game and Fish regulations for any specific rules regarding catfish fishing.
