A couple of years ago, FlyFishTV.com did a DVD about fishing for catfish up where the Red River flows into Winnipeg, if memory serves me right. They were targeting cats using streamers in flood condition waters. I guess the cats come in close to the banks looking for food that is being washed into the river. They were catching a lot of big catfish, can't tell you what species (one cat is as ugly as the next cat IMHO).
