About Bullock Pen Lake

Fishing Techniques
- For Flathead catfish
Fish near structure like submerged logs, rock piles, and deep holes, especially during low light conditions, as flatheads are ambush predators.
- For Largemouth bass
Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
- For Creek chub
Use light line and small hooks when targeting creek chub as they have small mouths and can be easily spooked in clear, shallow streams.
