Lake Havasu, and the Colorado River south of there has flatheads. Worth the drive if you're looking. They bite best in the hotter months, if you're trying to plan a trip. Big live bait at night in shallow water with submerged trees and such is best. If you are fishing the Colorado river below Havasu, try the back-waters off the main river. Bring some big tackle- a 30+lb flathead around submerged trees is gonna be tricky to land without super stout gear. They aren't line shy, so 50lb mono, or 65+ lb braid will do.
