Flathead Catfish

Flathead Catfish

Various

Parker's Crossroads, Tennessee, provides a convenient jump-off point for targeting flathead catfish in the nearby rivers and creeks that feed into the Tennessee River system. While not a renowned flathead destination like some areas further west, persistent anglers can find success. Look for deep holes with plenty of structure like submerged logs and root wads, especially in areas with slower current. Live bait, such as bluegill or bullheads, is key to enticing these ambush predators. Summer nights are prime time, as flatheads become more active under the cover of darkness. Access points to the feeder creeks can be limited, so research your options carefully. A local tip: focus your efforts on areas where smaller streams converge, as these areas often hold concentrations of baitfish and therefore, flatheads. Be prepared for a fight; flatheads are notoriously strong and can test your tackle to its limits. Remember that Tennessee has specific regulations for catfish, so check those before you go.
