Blue Catfish
For blue catfish enthusiasts, the White River near Guion, Arkansas, is a destination worth exploring. This section of the river holds a solid population of blues, offering the chance to land trophy-sized fish. The best time to target blues is typically from late spring through fall, as the water warms and they become more active. Look for deep holes, channel bends, and areas with submerged structure, as these are prime ambush points for catfish. Cut bait, live bait, and prepared stink baits are all effective choices. A popular access point is the public ramp near Guion. Be aware of the river's current, which can be strong and make anchoring challenging. The blue catfish in the White River are known for their size and fighting ability, so be sure to bring heavy tackle and be prepared for a battle.
