I believe you are correct... I must have misunderstood what I thought I heard. smile Regarding channel catfish, the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension service says, "They do not naturally spawn in ponds, so structures, such a milk crates, or buckets may be added to the pond bottom to encourage spawning."

Thanks!
