Blue Catfish are North America's largest catfish species, native to major river systems but thriving in reservoir environments like High Rock Lake. These powerful fish are distinguished by their blue-gray coloration, deeply forked tail, and impressive size potential. - Can live over 30 years and reach weights exceeding 100 pounds. - Prefer deep water during day, moving shallow to feed at night. - Excellent table fare with firm, mild-flavored white meat.

Local Species Insights: Blue Catfish
Blue Catfish thrive in High Rock Lake's deep waters and channel structures, making strong runs that test your drag system. These hard-fighting catfish prefer deeper areas during daylight hours and move to shallower feeding zones during low-light periods. Captain Marc Gioeli targets them using proven drift techniques and anchored presentations near drop-offs and creek channels. February fishing can be productive as Blue Catfish remain active in cooler water temperatures, often concentrating in predictable winter holding areas throughout High Rock Lake.
