Wilson Lake offers very good fishing for catfish. The tailwater fishery below the Wheeler Dam gets a lot of attention from anglers looking to target big catfish, but you can catch catfish throughout the lake as well. Channel catfish can be caught throughout the lake and in good numbers and bigger blue catfish patrol the lake chasing and eating plenty of shad.
