Blue Catfish
If you're after blue catfish near Satsuma, Alabama, the Mobile River and its surrounding waterways are where you need to be. The deeper channels and backwaters of the Mobile-Tensaw Delta hold some impressive blues. Winter is prime time, as the fish seek refuge in the deeper holes. Target areas with strong current and submerged structure, like fallen trees and bridge pilings. Consider launching from the McDuffie Island boat ramp; it gives you great access to the main river channel. A local's secret is to use fresh, oily bait like mullet or menhaden to attract these hefty fish. Also, be aware of the barge traffic on the Mobile River and exercise caution while navigating. The blue catfish in this area are known for their size and fighting ability, so be sure to bring appropriate tackle.
