Need to help with new lake to me pk, where should I launch (coming from Stephenville) and looking for good catfishing spot;

Thanks~!

this thread will be quite as a church mouse!!! may as well ask to take someone's wife out!!! The catfish on pk have turned into a Big Fat Paycheck. Just get out there and wet a hook. best of luck!

Thanks Mike, just wanting to catch a few channels and take my grandkids with me

I�m not a catfish guy, but here is my take on it FWIW. Launch either at the Public Ramp on the main rd on your right, or go up to Rock Creek and launch. There is many places to fish for catfish between Costello and the river, and in the river. I always catch a lot of catfish in that area as a by catch when the linesiders are up there. This isn�t much to go on, but they seem to be in that area.

I used limb lines on cedar creek and veal creek with good results in the past..used cut shad for bait..u can put in at state park...

Thanks Biddaddybray and TKC

We put in at Rock Creek Camp and fish river mouth , points and timber going into Rock Creek. Cut shad for bait.

Find some trees and throw out some cubes .They will come .Try to get up in one of the creek armed. Hope this helps .

Never really targeted blues on PK much. The most I've caught with any consistency was this time last year fishing around Costello for Stripers. I marked several fish hugging the bottom and dropped a couple cut shad down, among the live shad I was catching Striper on. Did this a few times. Seemed like they would cruise the ledge on the bottom where the Stripers were in 15-20' at the time. It was cool catching both at the same time. Biggest cat was in the 12 range. Typically left with about 5 or 6 blues in the box with Stripers. But I only did it when the Stripers started to slow down. Could be somethin there. Idk.
