Fish with
Todd Clement

Todd has been chasing blue cats on Milford Lake for more than 25 years. His first boat came straight out of a catfish tournament: he won $10,000 — and bought the boat on the drive home.

These days he puts that experience to work for his clients, from kids catching their first fish to anglers hunting a new personal best.

“I start getting after these big blues the day the ice comes off.”

The lake

Kansas' biggest
blue cat water

Milford Lake runs from Wakefield in the north down to the dam near Junction City — river channels, flats and creek arms full of big blue catfish.

  1. SpringMar – May

    Todd starts the day the ice comes off. As the water warms, blues push onto flats and up creek arms to feed — great for numbers and size.

    “More truly giant fish this spring than I’ve seen in 25 years of fishing it.”

  2. SpawnJun – Jul

    Big fish get picky while they spawn, but eater and slot-size blues keep rods bent. Summer nights are the move to beat the heat.

    “Spawn doesn’t mean you can’t catch big ones — you just gotta hit ’em right in the face with the bait.”

  3. Late SummerAug – Sep

    Fish come off the spawn hungry and feed heavy on shad, for big fish and eaters alike. Day and night trips both shine.

    “The night bite is tough to beat right now.”

  4. FallOct – Dec

    As the water cools, the big ones feed up. Many blues hold in their home stretch mid-lake while others slide toward deeper water — Todd knows both.

    “Can be the best big fish bite of the entire year.”

Every season fishes different, and Todd has spent 25 years figuring out each one. Spring, summer or fall — whenever you book, you're fishing with your best shot at a giant.

Tell Todd when you want to go and who's coming. He'll call or text to lock in a date. If he doesn't pick up, send a text — cell service on the lake is spotty.
