Flathead Catfish
For flathead catfish anglers, Evergreen provides access to the Red River system, known for harboring some impressive specimens. Flatheads are ambush predators, so focus your efforts on areas with heavy cover, such as submerged logs, deep holes, and undercut banks. Live bait, like bream or bullheads, is the most effective way to target these fish. Summer and early fall are peak seasons, as the water temperatures are warmer and the flatheads are actively feeding. A key local tip is to fish at night, when flatheads are most active. Be prepared for a strong fight, as these fish can grow to considerable sizes. Access to the river is available at several public boat launches around Evergreen, but be sure to check river levels and conditions before heading out. The flathead population in this area is relatively healthy, offering a good chance at landing a trophy-sized fish.
