Flathead Catfish
For a chance at a monster flathead catfish, head to Taylorsville Lake near Taylorsville, Kentucky. This reservoir offers excellent habitat for these whiskered giants. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Focus your efforts on the deeper holes and channels, particularly near the dam and along the main river channel. Live bait, such as bluegill or shad, is the preferred method. A heavy rod and reel are essential to handle these powerful fish. A local tip: many successful anglers anchor near submerged timber or rock piles and use a fish finder to locate potential hotspots. Be prepared for a long wait, as flathead fishing requires patience, but the reward can be a truly impressive catch. The flatheads in Taylorsville Lake are known for their substantial size, with many exceeding 40 pounds.
