Blue Catfish
Charlotte Court House provides access to some fantastic blue catfish angling in the Roanoke River. This section of the river, particularly downstream from Brookneal, is known for holding some real trophy-sized blues. The best time to target these giants is during the pre-spawn period in late spring (May-June) and again in the fall (September-October) as they actively feed before winter. Look for deep holes, channel bends, and areas with submerged structure like fallen trees or rock piles. Cut bait is the name of the game here. Gizzard shad, readily available at local bait shops, is a favorite. A good local tip is to use a Carolina rig with a circle hook to avoid gut-hooking these fish. Also, be prepared for a fight; these catfish are strong and can put up a serious battle. Always check river conditions, as water levels can vary considerably.
