Blue Catfish
While not renowned for giant catfish, the Apalachee River near Arcade does hold a population of blue catfish that can provide some exciting fishing. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Look for deeper holes and channels in the river, especially around bends and submerged structure. Cut bait, such as shad or bream, is a reliable choice for bait. Using heavier tackle is essential, as even smaller blue cats can put up a strong fight in the current. Be aware that river access can be limited, with most access being from bridge crossings. Be sure to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits. The blue catfish in this region tend to be opportunistic feeders, so offering a variety of bait options can increase your chances of success.
