Flathead Catfish
If you're targeting flathead catfish near Peachtree Corners, Georgia, the Chattahoochee River is your primary hunting ground. This section of the 'Hooch offers the deep holes and structure that flatheads love. Spring and early summer are prime times, as the water warms and flatheads become more active, especially during their spawning season. Live bait is key here – think bluegill or bullheads fished on a Carolina rig near submerged logs or rocky outcroppings. Be prepared for some current, especially after rainfall, so use heavy weights to keep your bait in place. A good access point is the Medlock Bridge boat ramp; however, be aware that it can get crowded, especially on weekends. Flatheads in this area can reach impressive sizes, so use heavy tackle. Night fishing is also productive, as flatheads are nocturnal predators.
