Blue Catfish
While not the first species that comes to mind when thinking of Torrance, Blue Catfish can be found in some of the larger reservoirs within a reasonable drive. While you won't find them in the immediate city limits, a trip to Lake Skinner or Diamond Valley Lake will give you a shot at hooking one. These reservoirs are stocked with trout, which provide a food source for growing catfish. Focus on the deeper sections of the lake, particularly near the dam or submerged channels. Cut bait, such as mackerel or sardines, is a popular choice. Spring and fall are generally considered the best times to fish, as the water temperatures are more favorable. Local tip: Check the Department of Fish and Wildlife website for stocking schedules, as the influx of trout can trigger increased catfish activity. Be sure to use heavy tackle, as Blue Cats can reach considerable sizes in these waters.
