Seasonal Activity Chart
Catfish
Leesville, Louisiana, offers fantastic catfish opportunities, particularly in the diverse waterways surrounding the city. Toledo Bend Reservoir, a short drive away, is legendary for its hefty blue and channel catfish. Success hinges on understanding seasonal forage patterns; shad migrations in the fall concentrate catfish activity. During warmer months, focus on areas with current and submerged structure. A practical tip is to use your electronics to locate submerged timber and creek channels, as these are catfish magnets. For bank access, explore the Sabine River Authority parks around Toledo Bend. Remember, adjusting your bait presentation and depth according to water temperature and current is key to hooking into those Leesville cats.
