Captain Chris Simpson with Fightin Da Blues Fishing Guide Service (864-992-2352) always says that October, November and December are peak months for catching big catfish on Clarks Hill. Here's some proof. Check out this 60-pound catfish caught dragging cut gizzard shad in a creek in about 25 feet of water. You can't drag a lot of the lake because there is so much standing timber, but in cleaner areas it can be deadly. Thank you for sharing, Captain Chris!
