Catfish season has come to an end here at Santee Lakes but that hasn't stopped the fish from biting. Anglers report that the catfish bite has remained consistent with fish being caught on mackerel and shrimp. Popular spots include the south shore of Lake 2 and the east shore of Lake 4. The bass have been biting soft plastics throughout the early morning hours. Popular spots include the south shore of Lake 5 and the west shore of Lake 3. The bluegill have been biting on wax worms and red worms. Popular spots include the southeast corner of Lake 3 and the south shore of Lake 5. Lakes 2 through 7 were most recently stocked. Our Trout Season Opener is scheduled to take place on November 6 and 7. Starting October 1 the park hours will now be 8 AM to 6 PM Monday-Thursday and 6 AM to 6 PM Friday-Sunday.
