Flathead Catfish
White City, Kansas, offers a chance to tangle with some true river monsters: flathead catfish. These ambush predators thrive in the deeper holes and snag-filled waters of the Neosho River and its larger tributaries. Targeting them requires patience and heavier gear. Late summer and early fall are traditionally the best times, as the water cools and flatheads are bulking up for the winter. Live bait, such as bluegill or green sunfish, is the key to success. Fish these near submerged logs, root wads, or deep bends in the river. Be aware that access can be tricky in some areas; consider using a kayak or small boat to reach more remote and productive spots. A local's secret? Try fishing below low-head dams, but always exercise extreme caution due to the dangerous currents.
