Flathead Catfish
For flathead catfish near Glenview Hills, Kentucky, the Ohio River is your primary destination. These ambush predators thrive in the river's depths, lurking around submerged logs, root wads, and rocky outcroppings. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, are ideal for targeting them. Flatheads are notorious for being nocturnal feeders, so fishing at night is often the most productive strategy. A valuable local tip is to use live bait, such as bluegill or bullheads, when targeting flatheads. These fish are opportunistic predators and prefer live prey. Focus your efforts near areas with significant woody structure. Also, be mindful of the strong currents in the Ohio River and use heavy weights to keep your bait on the bottom. The flathead catfish population in this area is known for producing some truly impressive specimens, so be ready for a potential battle.
