Locating Catfish

[Woodpecker]

Headed to Stockton tomorrow and want to get into some eating size channels.. thinking about heading up Sons creek above the 39 bridge and fish the mouth of a feeder creek.. I know the water will be pretty muddy and high. 

Does anyone have any tips for where to find cats this time of year with the current water conditions?

Thank you in advance!!

Well I went to Sons creek, fished about a half mile down from the 39 bridge towards the lake, Fished under some cormorant nests, didn't have any luck. I then went up stream past the bridge about a mile, it sure looked good but again, no luck. I did catch a 17" walleye throwing a swimbait while my other baits soaked. I talked to a guy bank fishing up there who said they got into the channel cats heavy on Saturday 4/25 after the heavy rains. I did some searching on this forum and found a post Straw Hat made years ago, looks like some great info for cats! (thank you sir!)

I'll be headed back up there soon.. I get species obsessed, so catfish is all I'm interested in right now.. probably should be chasing crappie! haha.
