Blue Catfish
Looking for blue catfish near Groveton? You're in luck. The Trinity River is a major draw for anglers targeting blues, and it's accessible within a reasonable drive. While not directly in Groveton, the proximity makes it a viable option. The best time to target blue catfish is generally in the cooler months, from late fall through early spring. Blues tend to be more active in colder water. Cut bait, such as shad or mullet, is a proven choice. Look for deeper holes and areas with current breaks in the river. A local tip: use a fish finder to locate submerged timber or other structure, as blues often congregate around these areas. Keep in mind that blue catfish can grow to impressive sizes in the Trinity, so be sure to use heavy tackle. Be aware of strong currents, especially after rainfall, and always prioritize safety when fishing from a boat or the bank.
