IMO cats from a lake get fatty and have a musty taste to them whereas a cat from a river seems leaner with a better taste

You have got to cut the fat off the top of the back of a pond/lake catfish or they will have a bad taste. Also, go ahead and throw the belly pieces away.
As for mudcats, I ate them as a kid when we caught them out of Caney Creek. I bet I could tell the difference, no problem.
Also, catfish seasoned and cooked by someone that knows what they are doing can rival any other fish.

Catfish from flowing lake like Toledo or D'arbonne don't have that fat. A lake like Caney they do and taste like mud. Catfish that I have caught out of the ouachita river have tasted like mud because I think their main diet is shad. Bass are the same way Caney bass are terrible to eat.
