Big Goose Creek through Sheridan, the Tongue River near Kleenburn Ponds or at the BLM Welch Property.  You will have to catch them with hook and line as trapping or seining is not allowed in those waters.

Make sure to practice catch and release on those big channel cats. They are a long lived, slow growing species. We want to see a healthy fishery in the future.

I have caught them in sand creek by  the state line. I also use cut carp we good luck, This year I going to try some jumbo smelt and think they will work well.
