Flathead Catfish
For anglers seeking the thrill of battling Flathead Catfish, the Lynches River near Lynchburg, South Carolina, is a destination worth considering. This river boasts a healthy population of flatheads, known for their impressive size and powerful runs. The warmer months, particularly late spring and summer, are the best times to target these whiskered giants. Live bait, such as bream or bullheads, is the preferred method. Focus on deep holes, log jams, and areas with current breaks. A practical tip: access to the river can be limited in some areas, so research boat ramps and access points beforehand. Also, be prepared for a long night, as flatheads are most active after dark. The flatheads in the Lynches River are known to reach impressive sizes, with fish over 40 pounds being caught regularly. Be sure to use heavy tackle and be prepared for a serious fight.
