Williston Area CatfishingOpportunities


Recommended Posts

Is anyone out there willing to share some locations for cats near Williston? I am headed out this weekend to do some paddle fish snagging with a friend and hope to get some catfishing in as well. Any information would be helpful. I have never been near the area.

I may be able to get some suggestions from contacts in the Williston area. I live in Minot but will be working at the confluence. Right now water is extremely high and fast. Also we just had a powerful winter storm. Power is out in all of western ND including Williston. It may be a couple of days yet before its restored. Get in touch with me when you get here and I will try to help any way I can.

Thank you Greg. I have a former student who is living in Williston now and has been paddlefish snagging but never done cats before. We have been talking today about the storm and it was a doozy. I will let you know when I get out. email me at [email protected] with a number and I will get hold of you Thursday or Friday.

Power is still out as of this morning. I work with KEYZ 660 and they have been off the air for a day and 1/2. Latest guess is power will be restored sometime late today.

Lots of channel catfish in the river system This time of year they will be up in the creeks and creek arms. You may find some on the dams although the majority will be up the creeks.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
