Flathead Catfish
Targeting flathead catfish near Velma, Oklahoma requires a bit of patience and knowledge of local waters. Focus your efforts on the larger rivers and creeks in the area, where these whiskered giants lurk. Look for deep holes, especially those near submerged timber or rocky outcroppings. Live bait is key: sunfish, bullheads, or even large shiners are all excellent choices. Summer nights are ideal for flathead fishing, as they become more active under the cover of darkness. A sturdy rod and reel are essential, as flatheads can grow to impressive sizes in Oklahoma waters. Access to some of the better spots may require a bit of hiking or a boat. Check local regulations regarding trotlines and jug fishing, as these methods are popular for targeting flatheads in this region. Be prepared for a fight – a big flathead catfish is a true test of angling skill.
