Blue catfish anglers visiting Hebron, Texas, should set their sights on the mighty Lake Lewisville. This reservoir is known for its robust catfish population, and blues are a prized target. Winter months can be surprisingly productive, as the big cats often school up in deeper water. Look for deep channels and holes near the old riverbed. Cut bait, especially shad or perch, is a go-to bait for blues. Drifting or anchoring are both effective techniques. Public boat ramps are available around the lake, but be prepared for potentially windy conditions, especially during the spring. Lake Lewisville blues can reach impressive sizes, with fish over 50 pounds not uncommon, so bring the heavy gear!
