Those flatheads sure are monsters. Did you catch it off rod and reel or trotline? I've seen some nice flatheads taken on trotline when I lived in texas but I'd love to catch one over 30 pounds on rod and reel[cool]!
Nice fish, Matt

Do you eat these fish? How do they compare to a channel? I would imagine one that size would feed the neighborhood.[cool]

That particular fish was caught on a Penn 210 reel and a nightstik rod.

I release the big flathead to grow, spawn, and fight again.

I've never understood why so many people come up to the Red River in Lockport to catch channel cats when you guys can find even bigger flatheads in your waters...

Hey Matt!

Just so you know, Robbie (Katfish) has been a long time contributing member here on BFT. He has caught some whoppers and whoppers +.

If you ever want to talk Catfish, talk to Katfish. Hes da man.[cool]
