Flathead Catfish
If you're after a true heavyweight, consider targeting flathead catfish in the waterways around Autryville, North Carolina. The larger rivers and lakes in the region offer suitable habitat for these whiskered giants. Flatheads are ambush predators, preferring to lurk near structure such as submerged logs, rock piles, and deep holes. Summer and early fall are typically the best times to target flatheads, as they are most active during the warmer months. Live bait is key, with bream, shad, or bullheads being popular choices. Fishing at night is often the most productive strategy, as flatheads tend to be more active under the cover of darkness. A practical tip is to use heavy tackle and sturdy rods, as these fish can put up a serious fight. Be aware that flathead catfish in this area can reach impressive sizes, with some specimens exceeding 50 pounds. Always handle these fish with care and release them responsibly to ensure the health of the fishery.
