Fishing is good all year around and anglers will find catfish, native bass, bream and panfish. From November 1 through March 31, Blue River is a designated trout stream. Each year, the Blue River Association sponsors two trout derbies. Anglers from across the country attend these derbies to fish and compete for cash prizes, awards, and trophies. The first derby is held in November on Veteran's Day Weekend, with the second derby in February on President's Day Weekend. Anglers can always look forward to some great trout fishing and a great time, and there is always lots of prizes for the young anglers. Make plans now to attend both derbies.

WARM WATER FISHING

Although Blue is best known for it's trout fishing in the fall and winter, there is the opportunity for wonderful warm water fishing during the spring and summer.

Imagine battling a scrapy Smallmouth in a river current and some of these Smallmouth will weigh four pounds or more.  Besides the Smallmouth, there are Spotted Bass, Largemouth, Crappie, Catfish, and a varied community of panfish including the Long Ear, Redbreast, Red Ear, and Green.  All of the panfish have a tremendous vigor and fight to them.  The catfish at Blue are rather famous since they prove with their numbers and size. 

Spring is the most exciting time for searching the bass population with the pre-spawn having the species in high gear. 

Don't miss out on the warm water fishing adventure at Blue River.
