Blue Catfish
For Blue Catfish in the Marble Falls area, Lake LBJ is a prime location. These hefty cats thrive in the lake's deep waters and can be targeted year-round, but the cooler months of fall and winter often produce the biggest fish. Cut bait, especially shad or oily fish, is the go-to bait. Focus on deep channels, ledges, and areas near the old riverbed. Drifting with cut bait is a popular and effective technique. A helpful tip: use your electronics to locate schools of baitfish; the Blue Cats won't be far behind. Public boat ramps provide good access to the lake. The Blue Catfish population is thriving, with good numbers of fish in the 10-30 pound range, and the potential for fish exceeding 50 pounds. Be sure to have heavy tackle and a strong net!
