Blue Catfish
Lake Worth, Texas is steadily gaining a reputation for its blue catfish population. The lake's depth and diverse forage base create an ideal environment for these whiskered giants to grow to impressive sizes. While blue catfish can be caught year-round, the cooler months of fall and winter are often the most productive, as the fish become more active in search of food. Focus your efforts on deeper areas of the lake, particularly near the dam or along submerged channels. Cut bait, such as shad or carp, is a proven winner. A local trick is to use a drift sock to slowly cover ground and locate active fish. Be prepared for a fight, as these catfish are powerful. Several boat ramps offer access, but be aware that the lake can get choppy, so a sturdy boat is recommended. The blue catfish in Lake Worth are known for their size, so be sure to bring appropriate tackle.
