Channel Catfish

Channel Catfish are an excellent choice to stock in your pond. Contrary to popular belief, they will not muddy your water when stocked at recommended levels. However, we do not recommend stocking any other Catfish species for various reasons. Channel Cats can be caught throughout the warm months of the year. They are fun to catch good to eat and take to commercial fish food readily. Channel Catfish typically do not reproduce in most farm ponds and will have to be replaced as needed.
