Blue Catfish
While Holbrook, Arizona, isn't typically known as a blue catfish hotspot, dedicated anglers can find opportunities with some travel. Blue catfish prefer larger river systems and reservoirs, so you'll likely need to venture outside of Holbrook to find suitable habitat. The closest option would involve a significant drive towards the lower Salt River system or perhaps even further south towards the Gila River. However, be aware that blue catfish populations are not as well-established in these areas compared to other parts of the country. If you're determined, focus your efforts during the warmer months, particularly summer, using cut bait or live bait fished on the bottom in deeper holes. Be prepared for a potentially long day of fishing with limited success, as targeting blue catfish in this region can be challenging. Always check local regulations and be aware of any specific restrictions on bait types or fishing methods.
