Blue Catfish
If you're targeting hefty Blue Catfish in the San Luis, Arizona area, the Colorado River is your primary destination. While the desert climate might seem inhospitable, the river supports a surprising population of these whiskered giants. Focus your efforts during the cooler months, from late fall through early spring. The intense summer heat makes for tougher fishing and less active catfish. A crucial tip is to access the river via the designated public access points west of town; these are generally well-maintained and offer decent bank fishing opportunities. Blues in this stretch tend to congregate in deeper holes and near submerged structure, so use your fish finder effectively if you're on a boat. Fresh cut bait, especially carp or shad if you can find it, is your best bet for enticing a bite. Be prepared for some serious pulling power – these river cats can reach impressive sizes.
