Flathead Catfish
Pink Hill, North Carolina, provides a great jumping-off point for targeting Flathead Catfish in the Trent River. These ambush predators thrive in the river's murky waters, often hiding amongst downed trees and other submerged debris. Spring and early summer are particularly productive as the water warms and Flatheads become more active, with another peak in the fall. Live bait is key for enticing these whiskered monsters. Bream, bullheads, and even large shiners are popular choices. Fish them on a sturdy Carolina rig or free-lined near structure. Access to the river can be gained from several public boat ramps in and around Pink Hill. Be mindful of strong currents and potential snags. Local knowledge suggests focusing your efforts on areas where smaller creeks and streams flow into the Trent, as these often hold concentrations of baitfish and, consequently, Flatheads. Remember to use heavy tackle and be prepared for a serious battle – these fish are strong and tenacious!
