Flathead Catfish
If you're targeting flathead catfish near DeQuincy, Louisiana, the Calcasieu River and its associated bayous offer excellent opportunities. These waters hold some impressive flatheads, and the patient angler can be rewarded with a true trophy. Live bait is the key to success, with bream, shad, or bullheads being the preferred choices. Summer and fall are prime times for targeting flatheads, as they become more active in warmer water. A local tactic is to fish near submerged logs or other woody structure, as flatheads often ambush prey from these hiding spots. Be sure to use heavy tackle, as these fish are incredibly strong and can easily break lighter lines. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits. The flatheads in this area are known for their large size, with fish exceeding 50 pounds possible. Be prepared for a long wait, but the reward of landing a monster flathead is well worth the effort.
