I really miss catching them ,what kind of boat is needed.

I miss catfishing myself.  Anyone know of any places on the wet side?  How about around Spokane?

[rasbo]

I really like some moving water always seem to taste better.A bunch of us would set crawdad traps,and fish all night long what a blast,we would frog also..Damn good fellowship

I hear at the spillway on the back side of PotHoles lake down from mardon is a great channel fish site

Sprague Lake used to be good for channel cats.  Not sure if they re-planted them.

Rasbo we stay at willow bar about 3 miles above the cental ferry bridge. It has a boat ramp and camping sites and places for trailers but no electricty or water. Most of the boats are about 18 feet but some 15 foot smoker crafts to. We catch both blue and chanell cats and smallmouth. Most of the fish are about 6 pounds but have caught some bigger.

I'm sure a boat is nice but you don't have to have one at Lyons ferry or Central ferry on the Snake, you can catch plenty right off shore, chicken livers and nightcrawlers.

Man all this talk about catfish has made me hungry for some deep fried cat and hushpuppies. I just happen to be maken them for dinner tonight 

[bowhunterforever]

When do they bite good down at lions ferry pasco?

[rasbo]

WELL IM DOWN FOR SOME OF THAT! Camping and fishing,how hard is the water running

[ThePascoKid]

probably May and June but I know a guy that catches them all through the summer

swafford pond down by mossy rock has some nice catfish...i think they are bullheads though.

there is a little pond/lake in whitecenter that we use to catch catfish in, again they are bullheads. biggest being about 2lbs. there is also one little frog pond that i have caught them up to 5lbs in.

ive fished the snake a few times for cats. averaging 5lbs and the biggest being around 20lbs (caught by my buddy).
