Chasing flathead catfish near Rogers, Arkansas, means heading to Beaver Lake. While largemouth get much of the attention, Beaver Lake holds some truly impressive flatheads. Targeting them requires patience and specialized tactics. Summer is the best time, particularly at night when these nocturnal predators are most active. Look for deep holes near submerged timber or rocky ledges. Live bait is essential, with bluegill or small bullheads being the top choices. A key local strategy is to use heavy tackle and strong lines, as flatheads can put up a tremendous fight. Several boat ramps around Beaver Lake provide access to prime flathead territory. Be prepared for long nights and potentially tough conditions. Remember that flathead catfish are ambush predators, so presenting your bait in a natural-looking manner is crucial. Consider using a fish finder to locate potential hotspots before dropping anchor.
