Catoma Creek is a stream located in Montgomery County, Alabama, that flows through the southeastern portion of the Baldwin Slough watershed and eventually connects to the larger Catoma Creek system. This waterway has faced significant water quality challenges, being listed on Alabama's Section 303(d) list of impaired waters since 1996 for organic enrichment/low dissolved oxygen and pathogens due to streambank destabilization, poor nutrient management practices, municipal storm sewers, and pasture grazing. Despite these impairments, the creek supports a diverse fishery and offers angling opportunities for several popular species.
