Blue Catfish
Blue catfish are another popular target for anglers fishing the Calcasieu River near Fenton, Louisiana. These catfish can reach impressive sizes, and the river offers plenty of habitat to support a healthy population. Unlike flatheads, blue catfish are less picky about their diet and will readily take cut bait, shad, and even prepared baits. Look for them in deeper areas of the river, especially near channel edges and submerged structure. The cooler months, from late fall through early spring, are often the most productive time to target blue catfish, as they tend to be more active in cooler water. A local tip: pay attention to current; blue catfish often congregate in areas where the current is concentrated. The Highway 165 bridge crossing the Calcasieu provides bank access, but a boat will allow you to explore more of the river. Heavy tackle is a must when targeting blue catfish, as they are powerful fighters. Be prepared for a long battle!
