Channel Catfish
Channel catfish fishing near Worland is often overlooked but can be quite rewarding. The Bighorn River, which flows near Worland, holds a decent population of catfish. Focus your efforts on the deeper holes and runs, especially near structure like submerged logs or rock piles. Summer is prime time, with the best bite often occurring after dark. Stink baits, cut bait (especially carp or sucker), and nightcrawlers are all effective. A good starting point is the public access areas along the Bighorn River. Be aware that the river can be swift and the banks steep in places, so exercise caution. Also, check the Wyoming Game and Fish Department website for current fishing regulations, as they can vary by location and time of year.
