Blue Catfish
While not a traditional blue catfish hotspot, the larger reservoirs within driving distance of Moraga can hold some surprises. Blue catfish are ambush predators, so focus on areas with structure like submerged timber, creek channels, and rocky bottoms. They tend to prefer deeper water, especially during the day. Night fishing can be particularly productive, as they become more active under the cover of darkness. Cut bait is a popular choice, with shad or other oily fish being highly effective. Use a heavy rod and reel with strong line, as blue catfish can grow to impressive sizes. Be prepared for a long fight. Check local regulations regarding size and bag limits. A fish finder can be invaluable for locating structure and identifying areas where catfish are likely to be holding. Remember to practice responsible angling and handle these impressive fish with care.
