Indiana Bluecat Fishing
The Blue Catfish (Ictalurus furcatus). Like the channel cat, the blue
catfish has a very fine taste. They might not be right up there with
the channel catfish on the dinner table, but I wouldn't be turning any
down.
These fish are strong. They love to fight and stay deep. They will test
your gear. The blue feeds more at night than during the daylight
hours. Unlike that of the channel. They primarily feed on crawdads
and fish. They can be caught on nightcrawlers, chicken livers, and
prepared baits as well.
They can be found mainly in large rivers and faster moving water than
that of the channel cat. We have caught them out of all the major
rivers in Indiana.
