Blue Catfish
Targeting blue catfish in the Ronda, North Carolina area requires a bit more planning, but the potential reward is worth it. While the Yadkin River does hold blues, the larger impoundments upstream, like W. Kerr Scott Reservoir, are where you'll find more consistent action and bigger fish. Winter and early spring are traditionally the best times to target these cooler water predators. Look for blues holding in deeper channels and around submerged structure. Cut bait, particularly gizzard shad or white perch, is the go-to bait. A fish finder is essential for locating structure and fish. The Tailrace Fishing Area below the dam offers good access, but be prepared for crowds, especially on weekends. Always check the water release schedule from the dam before planning your trip; rapidly changing water levels can be dangerous.
