Bullhead Catfish

Various

If you're looking for some relaxing bullhead catfish action, Shreveport's got plenty to offer. The Red River is the main artery, but don't overlook the smaller bayous and oxbow lakes scattered throughout the area – these often hold surprisingly large bullheads. Spring and early summer are prime times, as the fish are actively feeding after spawning. A simple bottom rig with worms or stinkbait is usually all you need. For bank access, try the Red River National Wildlife Refuge; it offers several accessible spots. Be aware that water levels on the Red River can fluctuate significantly, so check conditions before you head out. Also, while you're out there, keep an eye out for alligators – they're part of the local scenery!
