New Catfishing Products for 2023
By Keith “Catfish” Sutton
Check out the latest items made especially for today’s catfish anglers.
There was a time when it was difficult to find catfish-specific products other than the different types of commercial baits largely produced and marketed by small mom-and-pop businesses. Anglers had to use rod, reels, terminal tackle and accessories made for catching other species like bass, walleyes and muskies. It wasn’t an ideal situation.
Thank goodness, that’s no longer the case. Each year, manufacturers are introducing more and more new products made specifically with catfish anglers in mind. And many of these items debut at ICAST, the world’s largest sportfishing trade show, held each July in Orlando, Florida.
This year was no exception. The following items that could up your catfishing game were introduced to ICAST attendees last month and will soon be available for sale online and at fishing tackle retailers nationwide.
