Blue Catfish
Targeting blue catfish around Woodcreek provides a chance to tangle with some truly impressive fish. While Canyon Lake is known more for its largemouth, it also holds a healthy population of blue cats. The deeper sections of the lake, particularly near the dam, are where these giants often lurk. Winter is a surprisingly productive time for blue cats, as they tend to school up in deeper water. Use heavy tackle and fresh cut bait like shad or perch fished on a Carolina rig. Be prepared for a fight! Medina Lake, a bit further west, also offers blue catfish opportunities. Check local fishing reports for recent stocking information, as this can influence the size and distribution of the fish. Remember to obtain the necessary fishing licenses and adhere to all size and creel limits.
