Flathead catfish are present throughout the lake but are more common in the Aqua Fria River arm or by the dam. Look for spots where the water is murkier with vegetation or rocky covering nearby. Fishing for catfish should be great this spring. Try using catfish baits like chicken livers for smaller catfish. To catch a trophy size, try using live gizzard shad, sunfish or carp.

Dam
For white bass, during the day anglers fishing Carolina rigged lizards in 20-35 feet will usually have some success. Also in the spring, trolled spinners can also produce some whites in the lower lake and off the dam. When fish go deep, move on.
