Flathead Catfish
If you're after flathead catfish near Navassa, North Carolina, the Cape Fear River and its tributaries are your primary target. This river system is known for holding some impressive flatheads. Focus on areas with deep holes, log jams, and other heavy cover, as these ambush predators prefer to lie in wait for their prey. Summer and early fall are typically the best times to target flatheads, as they are most active in warmer water. Live bait is key, with bream, bullheads, and shad being top choices. Use heavy tackle, as flatheads can be incredibly strong. A local tip: Fishing at night can be particularly productive, as flatheads are nocturnal feeders. Be aware of the strong currents in the Cape Fear River and use appropriate weights to keep your bait on the bottom. Always check local regulations regarding size and creel limits for catfish before heading out. Remember to handle flatheads with care, as they have a powerful bite.
