While Ravenel might not be the first place that comes to mind for trophy blue catfish, the nearby rivers and larger creeks can hold some decent fish. Explore the Edisto River; it's a bit of a drive, but it's known for its catfish population. Focus on deeper holes, bends in the river, and areas with submerged structure. The cooler months (fall and winter) are often the most productive, as the catfish tend to be more active when the water temperature drops. Use a Carolina rig with cut bait, such as shad or menhaden, and be prepared for a long wait. Be aware of the tides if fishing near the coast, as they can significantly affect water levels and fishing conditions. Access to the Edisto River is available at several public boat ramps, but check local regulations regarding size and creel limits.
