- Donovan Pearase
Blackwater Cats is a fully licensed and insured fishing outfitter based in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada. We specialize in targeting Trophy Channel Catfish, on the Mighty Red River, the Greatest Channel Catfish Fishery in the world!!!
The stretch of River between the Dam in Lockport Manitoba and Lake Winnipeg is world renowned for producing massive numbers of trophy Channel Catfish and is where your host and head guide Donovan Pearase has spent well over 15 years cutting his teeth on these tackle busting brawlers. One battle with the bottom dwelling fury, of the mighty Red River will leave you wanting more… If your arms can handle it!
Although the Catfishing is the main event and the focus of your trip, we want to provide you with a fun time on the water, complete with an experienced guide, good fishing and good company. Whether you decide to book a full day, half day, morning , afternoon or evening trip, good times will be had by all.
All equipment, tackle, bait and gas is included with your full service trip. When your guide is not cutting bait, rigging rods, or passing you your sandwiches he will be fishing...and yes he will pass the rod… unless you would prefer otherwise.
All you need to do is meet us at the dock dressed for the weather. All you need to bring is a smile and your lunch.
