Flathead Catfish
If you're after flathead catfish near Bostic, North Carolina, the Broad River is your primary target. This river system is known to hold some impressive flatheads. The best time to fish for them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Flatheads are ambush predators, so focus on areas with structure like fallen trees, deep holes, and undercut banks. Live bait, such as bluegill or bullheads, is the most effective way to target them. A local recommendation is to fish at night, as flatheads are most active after dark. Be sure to use heavy tackle, as these fish can grow to substantial sizes. Access to the Broad River can be found at various bridge crossings and public access points along the river. Always check local regulations regarding bait restrictions and size limits.
