“We had a blast and I am so happy that Nick not only caught a trout on his fly rod but that he caught the biggest trout.  He said he learned so much from you yesterday as I also did.  A great experience. Thanks again and we will be repeat customers, maybe even a float…

While Webster, North Carolina, isn't widely known as a blue catfish hotspot, the Tuckasegee River does hold a population of these whiskered giants, offering a unique fishing experience in the mountains. Targeting blue catfish here requires a bit of dedication and specialized tactics. The best time to fish for them is generally from late spring through fall, when the water is warmer. Look for deep holes and areas with current breaks. Cut bait, such as gizzard shad or skipjack herring (if available), is the go-to bait. A local tip: Focus your efforts near the dams along the Tuckasegee, as these areas often concentrate baitfish and, consequently, catfish. Be prepared for a fight, as even smaller blues can put up a good battle in the river current. Remember to use heavy tackle and check local regulations regarding size and creel limits. While you might not land a record-breaker, the chance to catch a blue catfish in this scenic mountain setting is a rewarding experience.
