Flatheads prefer live fish. They eat bass, bluegill and other catfish.

They taste great.

Trolling for catfish.

Lol I know,I find that story to be very funny lol. Also On the link I gave you Fish can get alot bigger then some say.

[Havoc]

lol, live bait.. depends on what size you want. I was down on "kentucky lake" years ago when I saw first hand what fishing for Big fish was all about. They used 1/4 inch nylon rope on a hand cranked winch with a 3 pronged anchor for a hook. The bait - 1 whole 6 pound chicken. The Bobber was a full sized styrofoam cooler. The fish, well, there's plenty of pictures of them in the local restaraunts up and down the river, 6 feet on up. Now *that* is fishin for cat lol.

Plus catfish are son-a-bitches they live forever plus they can skip along dry land for quite a long distance without taking air like other fishes. Same with eel's.

Dude you should see some of them asain Cat's. Ive seen pictures of noodlers with Cat's like 10 feet. How do they pull thsoe things out of the water. They can grow up to like 15 feet on top of that. People die every year noddling for those Cat's.

Nope. Flat Head Catfish almsot always eat nothing but live bait.

We have cats at Mansfield Dam here on Lake Travis that are 12 ft long, according to our divers.

Is this lake in America. Also I would love it more than anything to go to one of those places on the Amazon river like many other popular people do and catch three foot bass and try to catch a 16 foot CatFish lol even though he would pull me in the water. Even if three men were holding an ugly stik with 500 pound test line the rod would break lol.

[OverPowered Godzilla]

Lol.

[txhurl]

mentions a 315 pound blue caught in the Missouri

315 lbs.

[eastforker]

This was a hoot, watch these old boys catch some catfish...takes a minute to load and they don't catch the first one until about 8 minutes into the video.

At a lock and dam near St. Louis the divers refused to go in unless provided with a sharkprod.
