Here we are about two weeks early for catfishing from a normal year. With little to no winter the water levels are low and temps already at 53 degrees. Stable conditions already have the catfish going in their pre spawn movements and they are biting.
The fish are already running in the middle on the break lines near holes and faster water runs. Bait has been pretty much anything fresh. I have used suckers the couple times I was out but been hearing that goldeye is good and pretty much anything else is being taken. Sit times so far have been that 15-20 minutes.
Big front early in the week might slow things down a little but warmer weather in the forecast for the end of the week will bring things back quickly.
I officially start guiding April 30th this year which is a new record earliest date. Get out and enjoy soon in case we do indeed run out of water.
