Maybe I can help clarify this discussion since I just returned from a channel cat trip to Manitoba.
This cat is 21
I thought it was a channel cat
This cat is 19. Looks like a channel cat to me.
The Red river near Selkirk Manitoba hosts the finest trophy channel cat fishery that I know of. Average size for channel cats here is 17 pounds.
The largest channel cat I got on this trip was 24 pounds 5 ounces.
And a lot of fun!
