Catfish Guide Recommendations

(I accidentally posted this message on the Charleston Fishing Striper website rather than the Midlands website. Meant to post here as everyone is always so helpful with suggestions.) I take my two boys and father on a fishing trip once a year to try something new other than striper fishing. Next on the list is a trip to Santee for a catfish fishing trip. We will need a guide with a pontoon boat. Does anyone have any good suggestions for a guide in that area? As I will have kids, patience will be important. Also, what time of year would you suggest? My youngest wants to fish at night. As we will probably be camping, I am thinking late Spring or early Summer. Would appreciate any suggestions you may have. Thank you in advance for your help.

You can cross post if you’d like but 99.99999% of everyone who posts in here also posts on the Striper forum …

Catfish is out of my wheelhouse but I’m sure someone will have an idea …

You need to contact Chris Simpson, probably the best catfish guide on Murray. I will see if I can find his phone number.

I second that rick in the past year he landed an 82 PDr and a 97 PDr on Monticello right now through February is the best time to catch a big blue on that lake
