March, April and May are some of the best fishing for the year for numbers of blue catfish and the Spring Blue Catfish Techniques program is the key to unlocking your success locating and catching huge numbers of blue catfish and even trophy blue catfish. This program is similar to the Summer Channel Catfish Techniques program released last year and also other books we have like the Jug Fishing 101 program and the Secret Channel Catfish Rig. I have taken my 10+ years experience as a professional catfish guide and bundled it up into a nice easy to understand package to help anglers go out, locate and catch blue catfish with minimal effort, and at a very small portion of the expense of what a guided catfishing trip would cost.

Without a doubt the most recognized name in fishing in the United States, a well versed and highly skilled multispecies angler, America’s favorite fisherman, Mr. Bill Dance. I really had a lot of phone with this interview and had a great conversation with Bill before and after the interview and am happy to have made a new friend. I think a trip to Tennessee may be in the future for some big river catfishing one of these days! I reached out to Bill Dance to talk catfishing after so many requests for information on big river catfishing. Here in Texas our rivers are shallow (and often narrow) mudholes so I don’t have a lot of experience with fishing for big river catfish. Many of the Catfishing Radio listeners have sent in questions looking for more information on fishing for blue catfish, channel catfish and flathead catfish in big rivers. Bill has been a life long Tennessee resident and has a tremendous amount of experience fishing big rivers. Bill’s recent involvement in Catfish Tournaments peaked my interested and I wanted to reach out to him and talk not only about that but get some information from him on fishing for big river cats! Bill and I talk about some of the basics of big river catfishing including navigating big rivers, safety concerns, what catfish bait to use, locating and catching fish and Bill Dance’s “best piece of advice for learning to catch catfish in your area (whether it be a big river or not). Finally we wrap up the show talking about the Bill Dance Bloopers video, his Signature Lakes project, the many different freshwater and saltwater fishing TV shows and more.
