Late fall/ winter river catfish bite

[Goldenshinner]

hey any of you guys want to disscuss winter catfishing on the river. im interested.i fish the river sometimes in jan-april. especialy if the weather warms it up enough that I can chisel the launch open. I had the cops show up once. I wansnt breaking any laws though.

at any rate I have herd about people pulling up realy big cats during ice up. any suggestions.

I've never tried catfishing in the winter. I know channels will bite, but I have not heard of flatheads biting in the winter. I would be curious to know from any Twin Citians if they winter catfish near the cities anywhere?
