Flathead Catfish
If you're after a true heavyweight, Sikes, Louisiana offers some excellent flathead catfish opportunities. The Little River and its surrounding tributaries are prime spots to target these ambush predators. They thrive in the deeper holes and around submerged timber, so focus your efforts there. Spring and early summer, after the spawn, are particularly productive, as flatheads are actively feeding to regain energy. Live bait is king here – large bream or bullheads are hard for a big flathead to resist. A sturdy rod and reel combo is a must, and be prepared for a serious fight. Access to the Little River is available at several points along Highway 126, but be mindful of private property and always seek permission where necessary. The flatheads in this region are known for their impressive size, with many exceeding 40 pounds, so be ready for a battle!
